About Rincón de la Vieja
Rincón de la Vieja is an active volcano in Guanacaste, north-west Costa Rica, rising above the dry forest and cattle country near Liberia. Its crater produces frequent small eruptions, and the national park on its flanks has fumaroles, mud pots and hot springs. These Rincón de la Vieja webcams, from OVSICORI, the national volcano and earthquake observatory, watch the volcano from three sides.
