Bosque Alegre
By admin | February 25, 2008
To get to this refuge, visitors must travel approximately seven kilometers from Cariblanco along a back road, preferably in a four-wheel-drive vehicle, or make the medium-long hike. This group of volcanic lakes is made up of Bosque Alegre, Congo and Hule lakes (in November, Hule’s waters turn a reddish color), surrounded by tropical wet forest. An organized community watches over protection policies and conservation of the refuge. Visitor services include trails, restrooms, drinking water, lodging and local guides.
