The Costa
Rican tourist board (ICT) describes the Northern Region
thusly,"...this is a land of volcanoes,
humid and cloud forests, enormous waterfalls and mighty
rivers, surrounded with rich vegetation and wildlife. This
generosity of nature has facilitated diverse activities for
the visitor that include horseback riding through natural
scenarios; canopy tours, water sports, hiking, mountain biking
and wildlife observation. The region combines the fertile
plains of Guatuso, San Carlos and Sarapiquí with the volcanic
mountain ranges of Guanacaste and Tilarán."
