We will visit the Poás Volcano and Botos Lagoon. Poas’s crater is an enormous, gaping hole one kilometer in diameter and 314 meters deep. At the bottom, there is a circular hot lake. The long-extinct von Frantzius composite cone -the oldest eruptive center on the massif, is at the north of the artic crater. Another cone named Botos is to the southwest. It was the active center until 7,500 years ago and now contains an astonishingly beautiful cold water lake some 400 meters in diameter.

What To Bring?:

Long pants, light jacket or poncho, comfortable shoes and camera.
