Good to Know
Experience the dual allure of Arenal with an afternoon hike and evening hot springs relaxation.

Learn about the natural history of Arenal Volcano and the surrounding jungle and then unwind at the Baldi Hot Springs on this afternoon and early evening tour. The conical Arenal Volcano has a fascinating history including a deadly eruption in 1968. While it has not erupted in several years, it is still considered active and still displays plenty of signs of life such as the volcanic hot springs and frequent steam that emanates from the iconic volcano.
There is also plenty of life around the volcano in the form of jungle and wildlife. The wildlife reserves at the base of the volcano contain thousands of plants and trees that provide habitat to many species of wildlife including monkeys, sloths, iguanas and much more. With a little luck your bilingual guide will be able to point them out and tell you all about them.
Baldi Hot Springs is one of the most popular hot springs in Arenal. Following the hike you will be brought to the resort to relax and bathe in the soothing springs. The Baldi Resort provides 25 thermal hot springs pools of varying temperatures. You can also enjoy the water slide or just lounge around in the relaxation areas.
Transportation will be provided back to your hotel following your visit to the hot springs. The Arenal Volcano and Baldi Hot Springs tour is a great way to spend the late afternoon and evening for anybody that would like a slow paced hike followed by absolute relaxation. In total, your hike will last approximately two hours and is usually performed on the El Silencio Trail, though this is subject to change.
