Acatenango Volcano Overnight Hike
Reach New Heights with the Ultimate Trekking Adventure
About
Calling all adventure seekers! Join us on a hands-on expedition to conquer the 3rd tallest volcano in Central America. With an elevation of 3976m, the hike promises spectacular views of the active Fuego Volcano. On the first day, you'll hike for 4 to 5 hours to reach the base camp at 3400m, where you can rest and take in the awe-inspiring views. The next day, rise before the sun and hike for 2 hours to the summit for an unforgettable finale. After descending to base camp for breakfast, continue your descent and expect to be back in Antigua before lunch. This challenging peak is not for the faint of heart, but the reward of conquering it is worth it. Book now and prepare for an adventure of a lifetime!
