Give Río Celeste its own Tenorio outing. SINAC describes the full out-and-back trail as about 6 km and three hours; the waterfall-only visit is shorter. Conditions can change the trail and water appearance.

Choose a self-guided forest walk or a booked natural-history tour. The preserve currently recommends online booking and arrival 15 minutes before the timed shuttle departure from its visitor center; a late arrival may miss entry.
