Swimming in a Volcano Crater | Cerro Chato in Arenal, Costa Rica
Subscribe here:
We started off the day with a quick 10-minute drive from downtown La Fortuna to La Fortuna Waterfalls. It costs $15 US per person for entry into the falls. You are allowed to swim around the base of the falls, but not underneath or behind them.
After this, we make the grueling trek back up the stairs to find the entrance to Cerro Chato Volcano hike. It takes about 80 minutes of hiking through farm fields and muddy jungle before you reach the mouth of a Volcano Crater and are able to go for a refreshing swim.
After the hike, we had some Chifa (Chinese-Peruvian Fusion) food in downtown La Fortuna.
We then hopped on the road to Arenal, and pulled over at Rio Chollin for a dip in some Costa Rican Hot Springs in a river off to the side of the road.

Costa Rica - Arenal Volcano and Chato Volcano
Stayed at an awesome place looking at Arenal Volcano. Went on a super hike up Chato Volcano to Laguna Cerro Chato. It was fantastic. Ended the day at a local free hot spring.
La Fortuna Waterfall, Arenal Volcano National Park
Situated at the base of the dormant Cerro Chato volcano and tucked into a lush rainforest, La Fortuna Waterfall plunges 140 feet into crystalline waters. Not far away, a series of smaller waterfalls and quiet pools complete this many faceted wonder.
Arenal Volcano National Park - Cerro Chato & La Fortuna Waterfall
A short and deliberately overly dramatic video of my time climbing and descending into the crater of Cerro Chato and viewing La Fortuna Waterfall in Costa Rica. I tried to have some fun with this one experimenting with aspect ratio and some slow motion effects. It's not to be taken too seriously!

The stunning Rio Celeste (Sky Blue River) in Tenorio Volcano National Park, Costa Rica. Two mineral rich rivers from the volcano join and a chemical reaction creates the most surreal and beautiful blue river you can imagine.
CLIMBING the ARENAL Volcano ????
La Fortuna Costa Rica is where the Arenal Volcano is Located. Massive and magical in it's size we hike as high as your are able to legally. People have died due to falling debris and toxic fumes. The view point allows for a beautiful view of the massive volcano. Hard to believe stuff like this exists on earth.

Hike to Cerro Chato, Arenal in Costa Rica
The hike to Cerro Chato, an extinct volcano in Costa Rica takes about 4-5 hours... on a good day. We went in the middle of a thunderstorm (Aug 2013), made it to the top (somehow) but saw nothing but FOG! We were just lucky to make it to the bottom before nightfall.
To read about the whole experience, check out our blog at
Thanks! Hope you enjoyed :)

VOLCANOES OF COSTA RICA - PART 2: ARENAL AND CERRO CHATO
I spent 4 nights at the Arenal Observatory Lodge and got some decent photos out of the Arenal Volcano. I heard explosions and I witnessed plenty of rockfalls which looks better at night cos the rocks glow in the dark. Arenal is the most active volcano in Costa Rica.
I also climbed the extinct Cerro Chato Volcano but could not see the Laguna as the view was blocked by thick clouds. So it's not worth watching the Chato footage after the Arenal footage.
Excuse the poor quality clips but I used an ordinary Digital Camera to record footage.

Outdoor Adventures Costa Rica - Hiking to Cerro Chato Volcano
Hiking to Cerro Chato Volcano, in Costa Rica. With 1100 m. above sea level, the Cerro Chato Volcano is the older brother of the active and magnificent Arenal Volcano. Cerro Chato is near the town of La Fortuna, from where you can make a nice hike all the way to the top of this dormant volcano, where you have stuning views of Volcan Arenal, to later descent to the lagoon directly inside the crater of Cerro Chato.

Climbing the Cerro Chato Volcano in Costa Rica
What an amazing day. Climbing a volcano, and swimming/floating in the natural crater lake that now resides in it's center. It was a challenging day physically, but TOTALLY worth it. If you're not afraid to sweat I recommend this adventure if you visit La Fortuna (and make sure you book through Costa Rica Descents).
