Acatenango

An overnight volcano hike where you camp opposite Volcán de Fuego and watch it erupt through the night.

The hike up Volcán Acatenango is a lung-busting climb to a high camp directly opposite Volcán de Fuego — one of the most active volcanoes in Central America.

You spend the night watching Fuego erupt orange against the dark, then catch sunrise above the clouds. Unforgettable, and genuinely strenuous at altitude.
