'''Costa Rica''' is a country in [[Central America]]. It borders [[Panama]] in the South and [[Nicaragua]] in the North.
== Pan-american Highway ==
For hitchhiking the [[Pan-American Highway|Panamerican highway]], waiting times may be longer than on the beaches but are still not bad. Trucks are definitely the best and fastest way to cross the country on the Panamerican, as they travel this road a lot and are almost always going long distances.
== Alternative Route ==
* [[Cartago (Costa Rica)|Cartago]]
* [[Heredia (Costa Rica)|Heredia]]
* [[San Isidro de El General (Costa Rica)|San Isidro de El General (Pérez Zeledón)]]

:''"You really feel the brunt shift in luck when you can no longer get in the bed of pick ups in Costa Rica and Panama. But hitching here worked well enough, although I got picked up by more expatriots than Costa Ricans! However, one Costa Rican truck driver who picked me up became a very good friend."''-[[User:Chael777|Chael777]]
:''"In two months here i hitch hiked more than any other country, but mainly because i was more determain, as transportation is rediculesly high priced. Getting rides was slightly harder than other countries in the area, and probably about 50% to 60% were forgniers. I was picked up by pick up trucks a lot in the rural areas, they didnt mind there."''-[[User:Aqua-|Aqua-]]
