The volcano experiences
eruptions similar to those of a geyser, which consist
of columns of muddy water together with steam that rise
from a few to several kilometers. These eruptions have
made Poas famous as the biggest geyser in the world.
Just getting to Poas Volcano you’ll traverse
a beautiful path of coffee plantations and flower farms
that adorn the side of the road and the views as you
start climbing are breathtaking . around the volcano.
The forest can be viewed along the paths and is almost
impenetrable, made up of very twisted trees. The cloud
forest, very moist and shady, surrounds the Botos Lagoon
and the zone behind Potrero Grande. Here most of the
trees reach 20 m high and are completely covered in
moss, Orquids and other air plants.
From the volcano will we go to the cradle of artcrafts
and souveniers of Costa Rica this town is famous for
