Since Sunday, the entrance to the Poás and Rincón de La Vieja volcanoes is closed due to falling trees on trails.
Wálter Fonseca, chief of operations of the National Emergency Commission (CNE), said that these were preventive closures were and that it is unknown when they will reopen.
Catalina Quesada, acting administrator of Poás Volcano, indicated that at 8:00 a.m. on Monday no tourist arrivals will be allowed, since they will be performing an inspection to determine if it’s safe to receive visitors.
A cold front affecting the country led to the declaration of green alert, which will continue at least until Tuesday.
