If
you come in your rental car
From San José, drive to
Liberia on the Interamerican Highway. From the main intersection in
Liberia (you'll notice the three gas stations and Burger King), drive 5
kilometers north, towards the Nicaraguan border, and turn right at the
entrance to Curubande/Rincón de la Vieja National Park/Las Pailas sector.
It is 14 kilometers on a dirt road to the village of Curubande, and
another kilometer to the gate at Hacienda Guachipelín.
At the gate, you must pay a fee of $2 per person for the use of the
private road. This money goes directly to the maintenance of the road and
the parking area at the Las Pailas sector of the national park. Both the
road and parking area are maintained by Hacienda Guachipelín.
From the gate, continue to the first fork in the road and take a right,
following the signs to Hacienda Guachipelín.
If you come with by scheduled
transportation
There are several ways we can provide
transportation to the lodge;
- We can arrange private transportation with a
guide/driver from San Jose to the lodge or from any part of the
country, allowing you the freedom to make stops along the way.
- We could arrange flight from San Jose to
Liberia airport and them give you a land transfer to the lodge.
- Or we could arrange a lest expensive transfer
by way of shuttle bus.
Remember, you will still have to pay the $2 per person fee for use of
the private road.
