Cerro Chato Hike

Cerro Chato, located near La Fortuna in Costa Rica. It is beside the Arenal Volcano. Total length to the top of the mountain from the base was 3km and an elevation of 872 meters. Very steep hike and rewarding! We took a swim at the top. No need for a guide/tour as the trails are very clear. The hike can be done in just under an hour, but usually takes 2 hours to hike up. It is also a steep downhill from the top of the mountain on the way to the crater pool. It was pouring really hard when we started to head back and the trails had some heavy flow! Good thing i had my Salomon Speedcross 3 shoes :)
