Before you go

Río Celeste Free River PoolSwimming spot · FreeSwimming isn't allowed inside the park, but about a kilometer from the entrance the same sky-blue river runs under a road bridge where you can take a dip for free.
Sendero Las Sorpresas (swim in Río Celeste, El Pilón)Swimming spot · hidden gemA family-run private trail in El Pilón, about a kilometer from the Tenorio park entrance, that leads in 20 minutes through forest to a spot where you can actually swim in the sky-blue Río Celeste — not allowed inside the park.
Río Celeste WaterfallWaterfall · about $14Deep in Tenorio Volcano National Park, a waterfall pours into a pool so blue it looks edited.
Laguna Azul & BorbollonesNature spot · about $14Two quick stops on the Río Celeste trail: a turquoise pool fed by the river, and the borbollones, where volcanic gas bubbles up through the riverbed like a pot on the boil.
Rio Celeste Suspension Bridge (Tenorio Volcano NP trail)Bridge · about $15A rope-and-plank footbridge over the milky-turquoise Rio Celeste on the park trail, where you can look straight down at the color of the water.
Los Teñideros (where Río Celeste turns blue)Nature spot · about $14The far end of the Río Celeste trail, where two clear streams meet and the water suddenly turns sky blue.
