Loved the views of the tarns, but wish we could have gotten closer. Still, for being the most visited stop in Costa Rica, it wasn't overcrowded at all!

This is a beautiful area to see, even if most days it is too foggy to see the volcano. We went on a sunny day and it was impressive. The attendant facility are well maintained and it is handicapped accessible. If you don't get to see it the first time try again, it it well worth it.

My only recommendation is that you visit the park in the morning, especially if you go around the rainy season, as the cloud cover makes... More
