Even though the name comes out of legend, these dormant craters evoke Indian culture linked to the particular features of the area. Besides of the crater complex at 6,286' above sea level, there are thermal mud pools, emerald green and turquoise blue waterfall swimming areas, small geysers and bubbling mud pools that emit sulfurous vapor recognized for its healing properties. All these particularities have made this place to be known as “Costa Rica’s Yellowstone”. You may even see a Jaguar if you keep your eyes open. This author did. And in the daytime!
