Orosi - Orosi Valley

પ્રકાશિત: 11.02.2022

Travel to Orosi,


OK... one last time I had to be patient to reach my next destination Orosi. I left at 8 o'clock again and once again I arrived at my destination after sunset.

Orosi - Orosi Valley


That was really the right intuition in planning.

First, because the climate here in the mountains was just right for my slowly ending journey, and secondly, the journey to my final destination was short.

Orosi is a nice little town in the valley of the same name, the 'Orosi Valley'. Surrounded by beautiful mountain landscapes and almost always in sight, unless it is covered by clouds, are the two volcanoes 'Irazú and Turrialba'.

I have crossed both of them off my list. You can almost completely drive up Irazú by bus, how boring. Turrialba showed a bit of activity on the day of my arrival and was therefore currently closed.

Not so bad, because the area around Orosi is also perfect for hiking. Orosi itself is very pleasant and not yet overrun by tourists.

Cartago


You can reach the former capital by bus halfway towards San José, after about 25 minutes of driving. And if you have time, you should definitely visit this city. I had time and visited it for a few hours.

Ujarras


Another destination, the ruins of Ujarras. For this, I took the bus to Paraiso and strolled to the 'Finca Christina', which is 3 km away, to take a little coffee break on this coffee plantation.

From here, I set off on foot down the valley, past the Mirador Ujarras with a beautiful panoramic view over the Orosi Valley.

Then I went steeply downhill to Ujarras. Here you can find the ruins of Ujarras, although the name sounds more pompous than what you find here.

Ujarras is a small village, in the center of which is a park with the outer walls of an old church in the middle.

I wanted to walk back from here, about 5 to 6 km in the valley to Orosi, but at some point the path was blocked by a gate, so I had to walk the 3 km steeply uphill again to Paraiso, a difference in altitude of 250 meters. That was not my plan, but there was nothing I could do about it.

Pura Vida!
