Costa Rica Tour Suitable for Beginners and Intermediates

The 18 to 25 miles Arenal Lake Costa Rica tour seems to be a long way, however, it is considered suitable for all intermediate bikers. You can try it if you are a beginner, but make sure that you get prepared to the over 600 meters of height, you need to tackle during the trip. The roads consist of gravel and sand; however, occasionally you might come across muddy roads and need to go through smaller streams as well. There is also a part of this mountain biking tour that leads you through a secondary road, but you need to remember that you are in the true wilderness of Costa Rica. Tours start at 8 AM from the Arenal Volcano National Park, and you will stop to have local lunch at the small village of El Castillo. You can decide to go back through the dam, or just finish the tour after lunch.
