As Licensed Guide with 400+ successful summits you can be sure I'm one of the most experienced guides for this destination.

The hike goes from the cloud forest on the skirts to the volcanic wasteland at the top. From here you can see the steamy sulfuric-acid lake at the bottom and the multicolored layers of ash on the walls of the crater and Coatepeque caldera lake.
Beyond just a walk, this is an interpretative hike. Learn facts of geology, eruptive history, etc. of the volcanoes.

Skip the crowds, the warmest hours, the lines and the slow walkers and queues.
This is a private departure, not the 11 AM joint hike. This way you go your own pace, making the experience more enjoyable.
The larger the group the slower it goes. Even weather tends to be more favorable on early hours.
Seize more of your day! No hurries, no crowds. Enjoy the views, take pictures, Time's yours! You mark the pace.

Trail partially shady. There's restrooms by the park ranger's station.

Hike Suitable for kids.

Description

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Santa Ana Volcano, Parque Nacional Cerro Verde Puede contratarse desde afuera a ese numero., Santa Ana 2201 El Salvador

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 Zapotitán valley and the Pacific Ocean coastline on the distance.
