Cerro Pico Blanco

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cerro Pico Blanco is the second highest mountain of the Cerros de Escazú, Costa Rica with 2,428 meters 2,428 m (7,966 ft)[1]. Pico Blanco means literally 'white peak' making reference of the rocky outcropping close to its highest point, that looks light gray from the Central Valley.

It is a good destination for a one day hike and is a potentially promising location for rock climbing[2]

There is no relation to the endangered, endemic Pico Blanco Toad as it is reported to be found further SE.
