IRAZÚ VOLCANO NATIONAL PARK, LANCKASTER GARDENS AND OROSI VALLEY

TOUR DESCRIPTION

 One of the largest craters in the world will carry you away to a moonscape land surrounded by the green area of tropical zones. With a little luck if its clear morning you will be able to see the two oceans (with only a slight movement of your head) from the top of Irazú. This is the famous sacred mountain of the earliest natives.

A visit to Lankaster Gardens offers you the most all inclusive collection of tropical plants and orchids from Costa Rica's diverse floral culture. This is a place you must visit to enjoy and learn about the bio diversity of the Central America tropics.

The tour included shorter visits to the plantation of coffee, chayote (a vegetable) and other tropical crops along the way. Hidden in the distance the vast open area of the Reventazon river basing waits for you as well as the historic town of Orosi with its ancient church. The church is now a museum of 250 years builtt by Spanish monks of colonial times. You will pass by the lake wicht forms the Cachi dam to complete this scenario of multiple landscapes, tropical life and history.
