Views of Playa Blanca

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the crater rim you have a great and impressive view of Playa Blanca, across to the Papagayo beaches...
If you walk around the edge of the crater, there are more great views in all directions ;-).

Path to Montaña Roja Volcano

Highlight • Trail

This path leads up / down to the crater on a very short path (approx. 20 minutes from the end of the house). Rocky, but the path is "doable" with sturdy shoes. Have fun ! By the way: I didn't really look at the clock, it could also be 25-30 minutes... maybe someone will catch up and give a more precise travel time ;-).
