This self‑guided experience lets you explore the volcanic Río Negro hot springs and mud baths at Hacienda Guachipelín and take a refreshing swim beneath La Oropendola Waterfall. Surrounded by dry tropical forest and fed by the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano, the site features multiple thermal pools along the riverbank, suspension bridges, and natural volcanic mud for a spa‑like treatment. Walk a short forest path to the springs and follow a varied‑terrain trail and a short river walk to reach the 25‑meter waterfall and its turquoise plunge pool.
