    Your endurance motorcycling adventure begins! You ride from Ciudad Colon towards Tabarcia through some adventurous trails. You cross coffee farms in the middle of mountainous terrain and pine vegetation at 2,000 metres altitude. You ride downhill to the valley with tropical vegetation and then recommence your ride uphill till the small village of San Francisco at over 2,400 metres height. This typical mountain village is home to a large community of Talamanca Indians. You have lunch in a Finca, a local farm of a coffee collector. You then take a steep descent to Pirris, crossing the dam and the emerald green lake. You can enjoy splendid views of the high mountains of Costa Rica from the winding roads of Los Santos.

    Day 3 El Sur – Montezuma

    After a typical Costa Rican breakfast, you once again descend on the Pacific coast to arrive in the fishing village of Tarcoles. Here you take a boat trip to see the giant crocodiles, up to six metres in length. With your bikes, you cross the river by boat. Do not touch the water as it is dangerously populated! Once on the other side, you ride your motorcycle along the pristine coast to arrive in Puntarenas. Here you board a ferry that will take you to the Nicoya Peninsula. You stay the night in Montezuma, an endearing hippie beach village. Pura vida!

    Day 5 Carmona – La Gloria

    You have a traditional lunch prepared by your hosts and hop on to your enduro bike for another day of the Costa Rican adventure. Riding through magical views of the Gulf of Nicoya on one side and the blue Pacific on the other, you reach Playa Naranjo. Here you take the ferry across the gulf and enjoy this relaxing moment.
