V!VA User‘s Description
Alajuela province is home to the Arenal Volcano, as well as a wildlife refuge and four national parks, but the Arenal volcano within Arenal National Park is the main destination point for travelers. At 1657 meter (5,436 feet) tall, Arenal attracts visitors both for itself and for it's low-level but colorful and incandescent eruptions, especially as they light up the night, not to mention the occasional brightly orange lava flow.
