Yasmine Pahlavi: Rock climbing in Costa Rica

One of the best destinations for avid rock climbers is located near the town of Aserri, just 30 minutes south of the capital city of San Jose. With climbs of up to 25 meters offered, adventure tourists will certainly have their hands full attempting to master the Aserri rock.In order to access the town, travelers are encouraged to drive or take a bus, then ask local residents about the trail to "La Piedra." After a steep 45-minute hike, climbers will reach the base, while another 100 meters of climbing will bring them to the top. Upon reaching the peak, make sure to take some time to enjoy the impressive views of the nearby area.
