It is simply breathtaking when the active brother Fuego shows up for the first time on the ascent to the Acatenango volcano. A plume of smoke rises from the cone at short, regular intervals. The Fuego volcano is 3,768 meters high and therefore the double volcano counterpart Acatenango is slightly lower. Part of the ridge can be climbed with a local guide. However, you should be aware that there is always a residual risk.
