La Fortuna - Arenal
ARENAL OBSERVATORY LODGE
This 27 room lodge is set high on a ridge facing the famous Arenal Volcano and surrounded by the newly created Arenal National Park. Enjoy the unique experience as you watch the volcano send massive plumes of molten fire into the sky. Traverse the forest trails and see a waterfall, hike a crater lake, and much more. Visit Tabacon Hot Springs and the Venado Limestone Caverns. The location of the lodge was chosen by scientists from the Smithsonian Institute who needed a close but safe vantage point for their research on Arenal. Located over 1.7 kilometers south of the volcano and separated from it by a deep valley, the observatory provides a safe ringside seat to both scientists and visitors alike.
