Looking for a place to walk and swim with family and friends?

This place is a little piece of paradise located in Grecia, near Alajuela. You will need to walk almost 1.5 miles to get to the river and waterfalls but the landscape and nature is totally worth the effort, it is recommendable to wear comfortable shoes...More

Wonderful place

We arrived at the place really early and were received by Luis who was amazing and explained exactly where we should go to get the best views. When we got to the waterfalls we were totally alone which made the experience even more magical! This...More

Beautiful place

Short drive from Grecia. These calls are wonderful. Plan on getting wet. The only way to see one is to walk in the river around a corner. Water is cold but not deep. Wear some kind of shoes. There’s lots of rocks and barefoot is...More

A hidden beauty of Costa Rica

2 amazing waterfalls. Tucked away in untouched nature this is a hidden gem. Well worth the trip and the walk to the falls themselves. You can even get in the water (if the current is not too strong) and get under one of the waterfalls.

New path to Los Chorros!

Shortly after the Municipality of Grecia bought the access to Los Chorros waterfalls, landslides wiped out the road and parts of the lower-end trail. Now the lower-end trail is completely blocked by mudslide. HOWEVER...if you drive in the driveway at the upper end (there's a...More

Disappointed - for hikers only in good shape

My wife and I are 65+ and not in terrible physical condition. We read reviews about incline, weather variations, etc. Some said it was treacherous going, some said it was an easy hike and went to the waterfall where they swam. What we found: The...More

Amazing trip to Costa Rica

This was an excellent trip to see the beautiful waterfall but definitely not for the faint hearted. The walk down through the rainforest is steep and slippy in parts so a walking stick and strong shoes are a must. It was well worth the trek...More

Has anyone been to Los Chorros in the last two or three weeks? Is the road down to the parking lot passable with small SUV, or is it necessary to hike into the falls from the top of the road?
