Learn more about Bijagua

Nestled between Tenorio and Miravalles volcanoes, this small town serves as the gateway to Rio Celeste's famous blue waterfall in Tenorio Volcano National Park. Spot toucans and sloths at the Heliconias Rainforest Lodge's hanging bridges, or arrange a guided night tour to find red-eyed tree frogs.

The short hike is worth the view!  The water’s color is due to minerals from the nearby volcano causing it to appear to be a bright beautiful turquoise.  #river
