La Fortuna, Costa Rica



It's a 4.5 hour bus ride to La Fortuna, a picturesque village sitting at the foot of the perfect conically-shaped Volcán Arenal (1633m). Arenal is the most active of Costa Rica's seven active volcanoes. There are 120 in total. It lay dormant for over 400 years until it erupted in 1968 wiping out the village of Tabacón.
