Santa Ana Volcano - With this privileged early access you skip the crowds, the warmest hours and waiting in line. You walk your own pace and spend more time enjoying by the crater.
A compound of extinct and young active volcanos forms Los Volcanes National Park.
Santa Ana is the tallest volcano in El Salvador and makes a terrific hike with stunning views to the valleys and Coatepeque caldera lake below. This is also the Easternmost peak of the majestic Apaneca mountain range, a belt formed by 14 volcanoes and the largest coffee country of El Salvador.
Along the hike we walk through diverse environments, from the cloud forest to wasteland on the top. A couple of miradores offer great views and a good place for a rest. Once on the top you can see the massive and deep crater with a steaming turquoise sulfuric-acid lake at the bottom and the fumaroles spewing sulfuric gas.
On a clear day from here you can see up to 9 volcanoes, the fertile Zapotitn valley and the Pacific Ocean coastline on the distance.
