The Rio Celeste is a river that runs through the national park and is renowned for its captivating blue color, a unique phenomenon caused by a combination of minerals found in the water and pH changes. The tour begins by taking the Mysteries of Rio Celeste Trail, a 3.2 km nature trail that winds through the lush tropical rainforest. As you hike, you’ll come across breathtaking sights of volcanic activity, sulfur emissions, and bubbling water. The trail leads to the Rio Celeste Waterfall, a 30-meter-high waterfall that is the highlight of the tour. The waterfall’s mesmerizing blue color is truly a sight to behold and a moment you’ll never forget.
As you continue on the tour, you will come across the La Laguna Azul, a small pool of intense color, and the hotbeds or “borbollones”, fissures and cracks that leak high-temperature volcanic gases and fumes. However, swimming is not allowed in the national park, but you can swim in the Rio Celeste outside of the park. The tour culminates at Los Teñideros, the point where the blue color water phenomenon begins. This is a rare opportunity to witness the water change from a clear turquoise color to a deep blue.
