The tour begins with a 20
minute drive from thehotel to the Peninsula section of the National Park,
near Lake Arenal. Here we will begin a 1.5 km (1 mi) long walk along an
easy trail for about an hour.Throughout the tour you can enjoy excellent
views overlooking Lake Arenal andthe Tilaran Volcanic Mountain Range in
the observation bays that are found along the trail. At the end of the walk,
we will have the opportunity to climb to the observation platform of
approximately 12 meters (40 ft) high for a closer and amazing view of the
volcano, and receiving a full explanation of its history, activity cycles,
geological formation among other relevant data.
At the end of the trail, we will enjoy a snack of fresh fruit before taking our
boat for a tour along the forested shores of Lake Arenal and islets to try to
find some animals. This is the ideal place to take scenic photographs of the
volcano, if it is clear. After about 45 minutes, the boat docks in the sector of
the Arenal Dam.
