Overview

The mighty Irazú Volcano is the tallest volcano in Costa Rica and it is located in the Cartago province, one of the first Spanish establishments in the country and former Capital City.

At the very top of the volcano´s crater, on a clear day, one can witness the unforgettable bird’s eye view of both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

As this expedition descends, back to the city of Cartago, your guide will stop at Basilica de Los Angeles, home of the national Patron Saint and a famous peregrination site for many Catholic believers, some of them travel for several days or even weeks on foot, in the biggest faith pilgrimage manifestation of the country. The Temple features large vaulted ceilings and exquisite examples of stained-glass windows.

Surrounded by rainforest and lush green scenery, Hacienda Orosi has been blessed by Mother Earth with natural hypothermal mineral water. These rich springs of mineral hypothermal “telluric” waters (non-magmatic or volcanic), are filtered between the layers of the earth and spring in the middle of the rainforest at more than 65 degrees Celsius. The minerals, salts and ions that compose this water enrich the skin tissues, stimulate the senses. Hacienda Orosi is a mystical land where the positive energy is perceived as you walk, tranquility as you breathe and indulge yourself.
