About this activity
We started by going to the Los Volcanes Complex National Park. Located 63 km from San Salvador, this trip from San Salvador takes an hour and fifteen minutes
The trek begins from El Cerro Verde, an inactive volcano located at an altitude of 2,035 m and a length of 500 hectares, with a very pleasant temperature, where there are beautiful trails through misty forests or cold zone vegetation.
The flora there is exuberant, always green due to the high humidity of the soil and the air, product of constant fog and frequent rains.
At 11:00 a.m. we will begin the journey towards the highest volcano in El Salvador, the Volcano of Santa Ana or Ilamatepec.
After two hours we arrived at the crater of great dimensions and an indescribable beauty. We will have an impressive view of Lake Coatepeque, Izalco volcano, Cerro Verde volcano and the Pacific Ocean; if weather conditions allow.
This volcano made its last eruption on October 1, 2005, throwing ashes over several kilometers around. It is currently in stable condition.
The challenge for some seems difficult, but the satisfaction of having achieved it is an experience without equal
Call now and live the adventure and nature from a perspective that only offers El Salvador, in this journey safely!
