This stage starts with a winding walk through terraced coffee and sugarcane fields that include nice views of Lake Angostura and the surrounding sugarcane fields. There are views of the distant Irazu and Turrialba volcanoes.
After making your way through the farm fields, you emerge onto the paved Route 225 and turn left. The small town of Attiro offers modest resupply options.
The route follows the sugarcane fields first along Route 225 and later in the fields themselves before entering onto a densely forested gravel road. This follows the Rio Pejibaye for several kilometers before crossing the river on a hanging bridge then following the river along the opposite bank until eventually arriving at the large Town of Pejibaye. Here major resupply, restaurants, lodging, and other amenities abound.
