NATURE HIKES & VOLCANO TREKS
With such an exquisite terrain, hiking or trekking at El Portezuelo Adventure Park is one of the most popular activities. There are many natural attractions nearby and destinations such as geysers, the cloud forest or the crater lakes. These natural attractions offer hikers a diversity of trails that will suite all levels. Trails are rustic, private and natural. You can choose from different options, but short hikes of 1 to 1.5 hrs. are available to nearby destinations. Other longer hikes like our volcano trek to the can last up to 8 hours are recommended for people with good physical condition.
We also offer treks directly to the Izalco, Santa Ana and Cerro Verde volcanoes. Our guide will take you directly to the “Parque de Volcanes” and a local guide along with a police escort will accompany you to the crater of the volcanoes. Although we cannot guarantee you will be permitted to go all the way up to the craters (the volcanoes are active and sometimes warnings are issued that do not permit hikers to get up close) we can usually guarantee a good trek and climb. The views are quite beautiful and the energy one feels from these three active volcanoes is astonishing. This trek is recommended for more serious hikers. Expect to hike no less than four hours.
