    If you stand on the slope of Fuego and look across to Acatenango, you can see several "campamentos" on its flanks. At night, the eruptions of Fuego are even more spectacular because you can see the glowing red lava fountains.

      The 2-day tour on the Acatenango is quite exhausting but a unique experience. During the day you can see the ash clouds and at night the spraying lava. Don't go too fast on the hike up, the thin air at almost 4,000 meters shouldn't be underestimated.

        Perfect place to sleep! A few places to put up the tent and admire the view without being in the boxes with everyone else.
