Conquer Los Volcanes National Park

Are you ready to explore one of the highest volcanoes along the Central American volcanic line? Lace up your sneakers, and let’s go!

After picking you up at the designated meeting point in El Tunco, we'll head to Los Volcanes National Park, home to three volcanoes: Santa Ana, Izalco, and Cerro Verde. This time, we’ll be taking on the challenge of climbing the highest of them all—Santa Ana.

Upon arrival, we'll embark on a hiking route through the tropical cloud forest. As we ascend, we'll be surrounded by ancient trees and a rich diversity of wildlife, including coyotes, foxes, ocelots, and various species of hawks and eagles.

Rising over 2,000 meters (6561 feet) above sea level, Santa Ana is the highest active volcano in El Salvador. Once we reach the summit, we’ll enjoy views of its four craters, featuring a light blue sulfur lake, and panoramic vistas of neighboring volcanoes and Lake Coatepeque.

After taking in the views, we’ll begin our descent. During the hike, we can pause at your convenience to enjoy the lunch or snacks you brought. After an incredible 9 to 10 hours, we’ll conclude by dropping you off at the initial meeting point in El Tunco.
