Volcano hiking

Picture of Volcano hiking

The most popular volcano to hike, which is located just an hour outside of town, is Volcán Pacaya. The peak can easily be reached on a short, not-so-strenuous, one and a half hour hike and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding area. For the ones that want a challenging hike, Volcán Fuego (active and lava spewing) or Volcán Acatenango (dormant but tallest volcano in Guatemala) might interest you. Disclaimer: we do not recommend doing these on Friday nor Saturday of the wedding).
