Carmenのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

To get here, you can enter Prusia Park and walk along the Cabeza de Vaca Trail, but you'll have to pay a toll to use the access route through Finca Hacienda Retes. Alternatively, you can exit the park through the main entrance and take the first turn on the right onto an asphalt road, also paying a toll. Continue up a steep hill and you'll reach the Cabeza de Vaca Trail again.

This trail offers spectacular views of Cartago province. Please note that to continue inside the park, you must return along this same trail.

If you plan to use either of these two trails, keep in mind that you must return along the same route. A few years ago, you could enter and exit the park using these trails, but currently, you can only exit through Cabeza de Vaca. However, you will have to pay a toll of ¢1,000 ($2) for the Hacienda Retes farm. It should be noted that at least on this occasion, we were offered "free" coffee or sweet water.

Access requires online reservation. Access is possible until 1 p.m., so it makes sense to hike the Prusia sector in the morning and then visit the Irazu volcano.
