Irazu Volcano

Rising to a height of 3432 m above sea level, Irazu Volcano is the highest volcano of Costa Rica. Though dormant since 1965, Irazu Volcano shakes the ground every now and then to make its presence felt. There are many craters on the volcano but the one with Diego de la Haya, a green lake with undulating base attracts most number of tourists. The summit of the volcano is easily accessible. There is a road from San Jose, the capital city, right to the apex point of the volcano. There is a bus service as well apart from the many organized tours to the volcano.
