Located in the canton of Upala, in Alajuela province, and within the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, Río Celeste is the area's main attraction, overshadowing even nearby Rincon de la Vieja Volcano. And while the massif contributes to the river's rich habitat and provides the minerals for the water's intense colors, the river and the Resorts would be worth the trip.
