In this activity, we'll hike up the Pacaya volcano and walk along its volcanic cone while admiring the lava rivers. We'll even stop to toast marshmallows!
Description
At the indicated time we'll pick you up at your hotel in Antigua Guatemala, from where we'll go by bus to the municipality of San Vicente Pacaya in Escuintla.
After a one hour and fifteen minute drive, we'll arrive at this town, from where we'll start the hike up the slope of the Pacaya Volcano. During the 1.5-hour trekking route, you'll learn about the history of this active volcanic cone, which has recorded at least 23 eruptions since the Spanish arrival. You can also enjoy views of the region.
Due to its constant eruptive activity, you’ll see the volcano's lava. Along the hike, we'll stop to rest and toast marshmallows in the magma streams. After exploring the summit of the Pacaya volcano, we'll walk about an hour back to the village, where we'll get back on the bus to return to Antigua Guatemala. We'll drop you off approximately 8 hours after the start.
