San Isidro de El General
About 45 thousand people.
San Isidro de El General is a bustling mountain town in the south, surrounded by tall peaks and green farms. It is a great starting point for adventures into the highlands.
Climb toward Cerro Chirripo, the tallest mountain in the country, cool off in clear river swimming holes, and shop at the busy weekend farmers market.

Nature
Nearby stands Cerro Chirripo, so high that on cold mornings you can sometimes see frost near the very top.

Food
Farms around town grow pineapples, coffee, and sugar cane, so the local market is full of fresh, sweet treats.
