Yesterday's climb was totally worth it! After a relaxed breakfast with a view from our hostel terrace, we could enjoy an absolutely epic downhill. A 20km descent on a recently paved road with awesome views and curves, passing some villages surrounded by palmtrees and rivers.
After the downhill, the road was rolling with steep hills, but we were still thrilled by the downhill, so no problem today 👍
After almost 40km, we got to the Panamerican highway again. The traffic was aweful, so we took the next turn onto a backroad. No traffic here, just some iguanas which even posed for a photo. On this backroad, we could go almost all the way to El Roble where we were going to meet Alex, our host for the night. We dropped our luggage and decided to visit Puntarenas, a village located on a thin stretch of land, surrounded by the sea. We got a treat and bought some icecream before going for a swim and returning to Alex's.Read more
