Time for some adrenaline; you will hike the Acatenango volcano. This is the volcano right next to the active Fuego volcano, outside of Antigua.

Departure is at 7:00am from Antigua, and after a ride in the vehicle you start the hike. At the end of the afternoon you arrive at basecamp, where the guide will light a campfire for the cold.
