Guided hike

The hike will take you to various panoramic viewpoints over the isletas, Lake Cocibolca, and also to the highest point of the Mombacho volcano.

This is a lake formed in the submerged volcanic crater of the now-extinct Volcán de Apoyo, whose floor is 200 metres deep – the lowest point in all of Central America!

The volcano is largely considered dormant, and a thick green forest has developed on its flanks over the years. It’s here that you can take a nature hike to observe toucans, hummingbirds, blue jays, howler and white-faced monkeys and exotic butterflies.
