November 1, 2006 From The Los Lagos Observatory
There are two great Observatory Points at Los Lagos, one being much closer to the base of the volcano and the other at a greater distance. The first four photos were taken from the closer point, while the final eight photos were taken from the farther point. We had to wait until 10:00 PM before the volcano emerged from the clouds. Our patience, however, paid off and we were able to witness some spectacular eruptions.
Eruption Date: Fri Oct 31 2008 17:00:00 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time)
Check out our Arenal Volcano Map for an update on the volcano’s current activity. It did, however, enter into a resting phase in 2010. At present, no eruptions are occurring.
There are a number of excursions in Arenal that allow for close viewing of the Arenal volcano. These include hikes through the Arenal Volcano National Park and the 4-in-one Arenal excursion, which includes a trip to the waterfall, a volcano hike, and a visit to one of the area’s hot springs.
