Arenal Volcano Hike 1968 Trail

Early one morning in July 1968, an unassuming green mountain in northern Costa Rica suddenly awoke and turnt into the legendary Arenal Volcano. If you are visiting the town of La Fortuna, you will  be able to get a close up of Arenal's now ashy gray peak from many different spots. One place of particular interest is the Arenal 1968 Trail. This series of hiking trails brings you through forested areas and across some of the historic lava fields that buried much of the surrounding jungle during the dramatic eruptions of 1968. This guided hike will be a trip back to explore the history of one of Costa Rica’s most iconic landmarks.
