| Villages and cities scattered along both sides of the Pan American Highway lead visitors to Guancaste's highlands. A very nice road leads to two spectacular natural sanctuaries, Tenorio Volcano National Park and its neighbor Miravalles Volcano. Don't miss a visit to Miravalles Forest Reserve. Beyond Liberia , Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park offers the dramatic experience of an area featuring an active volcano in a relative period of calm. The largest of the five volcanoes belonging to the Guanacaste Cordillera, it is composed of nine separate volcanic craters. A refuge for birds and wildlife, the slopes of the volcano are superb for horseback riding and contemplation of nature. | ||

Perfectly designed trails allow visitors to travel along the slopes and the higher areas of the volcano with very rewarding experiences in bird watching as well as wildlife spotting. Splendid vegetation and gigantic trees, bubbling mud holes, clean cool rivers, dramatic waterfalls and river pools embrace visitors, while inviting them to relax. Further north, Santa Rosa National Park is the largest protected area of the dry forest, an area ranging from the savanna to the slopes of Guanacaste's volcanic range on the eastern side of the territory. |
