On the way down to the Irazú Volcano, it's worth stopping to appreciate a bit of the view, especially at sunset.

The place is very spacious, it is recommended to go in summer for good photos, completely pedalable. You can see the video "Basilica de los Angeles" on our Official Channel "BIKERS COSTA RICA" https://www.facebook.com/reel/1191863962050845
