CENTRAL VALLEY
(San José &
Central Valley, Savegre Valley
& Surroundings)
 Mountains
and volcanoes enclose the Central Valley in a sort of geographical
cradle to form Costa Rica’s cultural and geographical
base. Hosting the main international airport, San Jose acts
as a visitor’s gateway to Costa Rica offering a starting
point for visiting cultural hallmarks such as the capital’s
museums and the National Theatre, and enjoying the surrounding
natural delights such as white water rafting, rain and cloud
forest hiking, mountain biking, butterfly farms, botanical
gardens, picturesque towns, coffee plantations and more than
25 one-day activities.
SAN JOSÉ
& THE CENTRAL VALLEY
 Dense
in population in comparison to the rest of the country, the
Valle Central shelters one of every four Costa Ricans &
immigrants. It is also home to the four most important cities
in the country: San José, the capital city of Costa
Rica, and the provincial capitals of Cartago, Heredia and
Alajuela, together providing the most economically productive
region, and the foundation for the main political and social
institutions, as well as the main health centres. The average
temperature in the valley is 24ºC (77ºF) all year-round,
and the altitude ranges from 2000 to 5000 feet (600 to 1500
m).
