If you have a day or two in San Jose and want to see something besides the classic city tourist spots, then you should plan a trip to Hacienda La Chimba, just 30 minutes from downtown.

Hacienda La Chimba is a locally run private coffee farm of 65 hectares in Santa Ana. They offer several activities: hiking trails, coffee tour, ziplining and a high rope course. Their most popular activity is their hiking trail which offers fantastic city views, with a key highlight called the La Mano de Mantra, a large Mantra hand structure overlooking the mountains. This park is very popular among city Costa Ricans so it’s a fantastic local spot to experience.
