Volcano Adventure Excursion

Active adventure, Pacaya volcano hiking shore trip

This adventourous shore trip starts from Puerto Quetzal with a 1:30 hours drive to the foothills of the active Pacaya volcano.

The excursion begins with a relatively strenuous hike through a beautiful pine forest, then through a more tricky volcanic ash section and finally near to the sulfur smoking cone. (1:30 Hours Approximately)

On occasions, you can even see small eruptions and lava flow depending on the activity of the volcano. From the summit, we can enjoy great views to the northern volcanoes, the pacific lowlands and all the way to El Salvador.

Back at the base of the volcano (1:30 Hours Approximately), our support vehicle awaits us for our transfer back to Puerto Quetzal, with a technical stop for lunch in a restaurant on the way.

3:30 approximately we return to Puerto quetzal on time to board the cruise ship

Note: there is the possibility to rent a horse, local providers charge about $15.00 one-way and $30.00 round service.
