This weekend we headed to Rio Celeste which was 5 hours away from San Jose. We left Friday morning at 6am! We arrived at Rio Celeste just before noon. We decided to buy groceries and relax at hostel backcampers (the place we were staying). The first day there, everyone decided to relax and get to know one another. This was our first group trip!
The next morning we woke up early to go to the national park in Rio Celeste. We decided to walk to the national park, which took us about 3 hours walking up and down multiples hills of gravel. We finally got to the national park, and it unfortunately started to rain. We hiked through the park to see the waterfalls, hot springs, and flora and fauna around us. We also got to experience the joys of mud.
In total we walked around 12-14 miles in total. Once we made it back to the hostel we washed off and decided to relax the rest of the night! Rio Celeste was a good first trip even though we didn't anticipate all of the mud and rain we encountered. Everything we saw was beautiful! I just wish my camera was a bit better to really show the true beauty I saw.
