    La Leona Waterfall Finca Curubanda

    tiemHidden in the forest near Rincón de la Vieja Volcano, just outside the village of Curubandé and about 20 minutes from Liberia, La Leona is one of Guanacaste's most surprising natural wonders. The trail is about 2 km each way. Along it, you cross the river several times and work your way through a narrow canyon with the help of a rope. Al final, una corta natación te lleva a una cueva, donde la cascada se vierte en una piscina de agua turquesa brillante. The color comes from the volcanic minerals of the area. The estimated time to get there is 1 hour and 20 minutes, it is very easy to access by vehicle.
