Randonnée privée vers les volcans actifs Izalco et Cerro Verde. 2 volcans en une journée !
Description
Izalco est l'un des plus jeunes volcans du monde (et toujours actif). Atteindre son cratère est une expérience enrichissante mais stimulante ! Préparez-vous à marcher sur des pentes abruptes, des forêts de nuages luxuriantes, un sol accidenté et (lorsque Mère Nature est d'humeur) des vues époustouflantes. Appelé "Le phare du Pacifique" par les anciens marins, ce jeune homme était en éruption constante depuis la fin des années 1700, crachant des coulées de lave et des débris jusqu'à ce qu'il atteigne une altitude de près de 2000 m (6400+ pieds). Près du cratère, vous pouvez encore voir des fumerolles et, du haut, les champs de lave solidifiés crachés lors des récentes éruptions. De plus, les pentes abruptes du Cerro Verde nous attendent à nouveau. Après être revenu au centre des visiteurs de Cerro Verde, vous avez été transformé en deux volcans en une journée et vous pouvez fièrement dire VENI, VIDI, VICI. REMARQUE: il s'agit d'une randonnée difficile, un équipement approprié est requis pour la sécurité. Bottes/chaussures de randonnée, hydratation, protection solaire/pluie et une bonne forme physique sont indispensables. Bâtons de randonnée fortement recommandés.

Hiking the volcanos require a guide and I could not be happier that we chose to spend a bit more money to go privately with Ueli. The day was extremely windy and the summit of Santa Ana had been closed, but Ueli adjusted plans to bring us up Izalco so we still had a great experience. As an indigenous Mayan, his knowledge of the area, the significance of the volcanos and the land, and so much more made the entire day feel very special. I couldn’t recommend them all more!
Leo was an excellent tour guide! I would recommend to anyone. Beautiful volcano and well maintained trail. Excellent view from the top!
After having a disappointing experience trying to arrange this hike through another company (the only other one), I was so grateful to find this team. From the very beginning, they were communicative, punctual, and professional—everything I needed after a stressful start to my trip. My guide Francisco was knowledgeable, patient, and truly passionate about the region and the volcano itself. I felt safe, supported, and taken care of the entire time. The Izalco hike is no joke—it's steep and exposed—but the views are absolutely worth it, and having a guide who clearly cared made all the difference. This is experience is also much better than Santa Ana--because who loves crowds (not me) We then had lunch at the Lake afterwards They handled transportation, logistics, and timing flawlessly. I only wish I had booked my entire itinerary through them from the start. Highly recommend this team to anyone—especially solo travelers—looking for a reliable, respectful, and empowering experience.
We really appreciate your kind words. We like to know our team reached your expectations and, above all, you enjoyed your experience. We're here to serve. All the best to you. Alfredo PS: I will share your review with Francisco ;-)
Spent outstanding 2 days with Alfredo. First day, we did Izalco, second, Santa Ana. He’s responsible, knowledgeable, service oriented, with great English. Highly recommended.
Always glad to serve, my friend. Looking forward when we make more volcano hiking. Stay well
I hired Alfredo Avalos (alfredo@exploreelsalvador.com) who was an excellent and knowledgeable guide who took me on a 2-day hiking tour of El Impossible National Park, Santa Ana volcano (at Sunrise) and Izalco volcano. He provided camping gear and was fun to hang out with. I highly recommend his services!
Thanks for such nice words Ryan. Were 2 great days of great hiking and even better company. Thanks for calling me hoping the rest of your journey in El Salvador was great too! Sunsets, sunrises, 3 volcanoes in one day (a personal record for me), beautiful trails and views... Cheers body! Let's do it again! Yours,
Alfredo helped us with everything in Izalco. First of all, we took a breakfast at Subway cause we didn’t have enough time to take it at our hotel. The journey was amazing, we were delighted with every minute from the 4 hours trekking trip. We hope to come back to Izalco.
