Wallow in waterfall pools, picnic
among wildflowers, or abseil down steep - sided chasms: Karijini is a playground for all - things outdoorsy, and you could easily fill a week rambling its myriad
hiking trails and seeking out freshwater swimming
spots.
Some highlights are the wildlife watching at the Parque Nacional Corcovado, snorkelling at Playa Conchal, meeting monkeys at the Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio, bird - watching and crocodile
spotting at the Parque Nacional Carara, getting
among the fireflies at the Arenal volcano, exploring the cloud forest around Monteverde and Santa Elena and
hiking and horseback riding around the volcanic mud pots, waterfalls and thermal pools of the Volcan Rincon de la Vieja.
