Vara Blanca is home to the unmatched La Paz Waterfall Gardens. Although this park's admission is fairly pricey, most travelers say it is well worth the money. There are large areas of virgin rainforest here that remain unspoilt by agriculture, in part due to the heavy rainfall and overcast weather of the eastern slopes of the mountain range. The history of the park stems back to World War II when the United States Army Corps of Engineers built the road to and bridge over the La Paz River, allowing access to this area for medicinal needs from the region's trees. Although the experiment wasn't successful, it opened up new opportunities for travelers to reach the area.

Poás Volcano National Park is one of the most breathtaking sites in Costa Rica. Sitting at nearly 8,885 feet high, Poas is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in the country. Because this park is highly attractive, it is actually one of the most developed and can even be accessed by wheelchair.Capture stunning views at the main crater, which stretches almost a mile in diameter. Geysers are known to explode into the air here, and can reach heights as momentous as 820 feet, but the chances of getting splashed are very unlikely because the crater is nearly 1,000 feet below the ground level where visitors stand. Outside of the immediate area around the crater, the park is very dense with vegetation and an abundance of flora and fauna.

Home to a variety of wildcats, monkeys and other native Costa Rican fauna, Zoo Ave is most well known for housing more than 100 different species of vibrant birds. This animal park is always lively, with feathers, scales and fur all heightened by the beautiful music of each species' unique voice. While Zoo Ave is a great place to learn more about native Costa Rican wildlife, the park's main mission is to breed animals that can be reintroduced into the wild. With such a great mission, you know your admission fee is going toward something worthwhile!
