Hiking Adventure - Guanacaste has enough trails to keep serious hikers stepping for a long time, and the scenery those routes pass ranges from lowland rain forests to brisk mountain valleys. The routes themselves are as varied as the scenery, ranging from invigorating jaunts in the mountains to backpacking adventures that lead you into the heart of the wilderness. Nearly all of Guanacaste's national parks have short trails that can be hiked in an hour or two, while others have routes that take the better part of a day to complete, such as the trails to the top of Barva and Rincon de la Vieja Volcanoes. Santa Rosa National Parks have longer backpacking routes, which require several days. There are also plenty of well marked hiking trails in Guanacaste's growing number of private reserves. |
Mountain Biking - With its countless kilometers of dirt roads and paths traversing a variety of terrain, Guanacaste has enough mountain biking routes to keep a serious biker rolling for years. But you need neither be an enthusiast nor willing to deal with the hassle of dragging a bike along as luggage to enjoy the sport there. Mountain bikes can be rented with us, and several local companies offer mountain bike tours of Guanacaste's less visited areas, many of which are mellow enough for people who haven't been on a bike for years. A good selection of one-day tours head out of San Jose to nearby attractions, tours. Bikers who bring their own wheels will find no shortage of routes in Guanacaste. The southern Nicoya Peninsula, which is crisscrossed by sparsely traveled dirt roads, is the perfect region for mountain-bike touring.
