Irazu Volcano National Park

Here you can discover the majesty of Costa Rica's highest volcano. Easily accessible and close to the city, it boasts five craters and impressive views. This park boasts a mountainous environment, low vegetation, and a very humid and cold climate. This site is foggy most of the time. On clear days, you can see from its summit both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, much of the national territory, and, with a telescope, even Lake Nicaragua. Its maximum elevation is 3,432 meters above sea level, making it the highest volcano in Costa Rica. It registers an average annual temperature between 5°C and 9°C, as well as an annual rainfall of 2,387 mm in the Cráteres sector and 1,527 mm in the Prusia sector. Within this protected wilderness area, several rivers and streams originate, giving rise to the Reventazón, Sarapiquí, Sucio, and Toro Amarillo basins. Due to its height and position in the Central Volcanic Range, the Irazú Volcano is a strategic point for the country's telecommunications
