Half Day Tour of Cerro Negro's Volcano Boarding

The Cerro Negro is a young and unique volcano. It provides a stunning natural setting, the opportunity to hike a active volcano, see its crater and board down. The steep slopes of this black volcano lack any kind of vegetation. An eruption in 1999 has left a wide border of black, volcanic material around Cerro Negro and there are two smaller craters right next to the volcano which were recently formed. The crater – often emitting smoke and gas – can be observed from above, and the crater rim leads to the other side where the imposing volcanic chain can be seen with several volcanoes (including the Telica and San Cristóbal) lined up one after another. The volcano’s steep slopes provide a great surface for Volcano Boarding. This thrilling experience takes little time before reaching the bottom. It is also possible to walk or run down while enjoying the superb views. In any way, the Cerro Negro provides a unique and intense experience.
