Laguna de Hule

Posted on May 30, 2024February 15, 2024 by Ultimate Guide

About: This lagoon is a little bit harder access than the nearby Rio Cuarto Lagoon, but it does offer hiking trails, which the Rio Cuarto Lagoon does not. It also has a restaurant and kayaks and stand up paddleboards available for rent. There are actually 3 lagoons that you can reach with the trails, the Laguna de Hule, the Laguna Bosque Alegre, and the Laguna Congo, each of which has a distance of 1-2 kilometers each way (the hikes are all out and back, not loops).

Province: Alajuela

Starting from: La Fortuna / Downtown Alajuela / Downtown Heredia / Downtown San Jose

Time to reach from starting location: 1 hour 21 minutes / 1 hour 29 minutes / 1 hour 40 minutes / 2 hours 5 minutes

Time needed for activity: 2+ hours

Kid friendly: Yes

Wheelchair accessible: Yes

What to wear and bring: Comfortable clothes, walking or hiking shoes, sandals or water shoes, swimsuit, towel, change of clothes, sunscreen, insect repellent, hat, sunglasses, poncho or rain jacket, field guides, camera, binoculars, backpack, water, snacks, pack lunch, cash

Tips: The access road off the main road is in poor condition and requires a 4WD and may take nearly 30 minutes to reach. If you don’t have a lot of time, the nearby Rio Cuarto Lagoon is much easier to access and also offers kayak and stand up paddleboard rentals.
