Steam rises ahead like a map written in weather, and the trail narrows to a ribbon of roots and volcanic ash as you step toward Miravalles.

6 hours.
Suitable for people in average physical condition—short uphill sections and uneven terrain but no extended climbs.
The walk to the secondary crater is short—about 10–20 minutes over an easy but uneven path; guides limit access near active vents.
Most facilities allow children but supervision is required; temperature zones vary, so check with the guide and avoid hot pools for very young children.

No—during the rainy season currents and water quality can be hazardous; guides will advise whether swimming is allowed on the day.
Miravalles and the surrounding Guanacaste range are part of Costa Rica’s volcanic backbone; geothermal activity has long shaped local land use and inspired small-scale energy development.
