Your guide will pick you up early morning at your hotel as we begin our
journey with a drive up the lush, green mountain slopes of Irazú Volcano with
breathtaking views of the Central Valley far below. Our destination is the
summit of Irazú, 11,260 feet above sea level. The volcano has been dormant
since its last eruption in 1963, except for a few tremors in 1991. On a clear
day you can see both the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts. Our biking trip begins
down the slope of Irazú on a long paved road overlooking the Central Valley.
Our scenic tour takes us to the village of Pacayas, ending our cycling day in
the quaint town of Turrialba, home to one of the five most important tropical
agricultural research centers in the world. Transportation will be provided
