 This is an out and back ride starting by Arenal Volcano National Park.  We’ll bike on the  gravel road along the south shore of LakeArenal,  famous for the abundant wildlife and stunning scenery.  After crossing the Caño Negro river we’ll ride on the abandoned road around the lake crossing a few streams and passing by small family farms and areas of protected forest.  After the ride we’ll stop at a local restaurant for a delicious and well deserved “casado” lunch, served right in front of Arenal Volcano
