Entry 02/2022:

100 Quetzales for foreigners, 30 for Guatemalans and 10 for students.

Entry is only possible with a guide. If you have not already booked a tour in advance, you can try to join a group in advance.

If the ascent or descent is too difficult for you, you can go on horseback instead of on foot (200 quetzales one way). Children sell hiking sticks on site.

There are toilets and a shop downstairs.

To avoid disappointment: there is no lava escaping from the volcano, and it is not possible to climb to the top. The hike is approximately 3 km each way.

Start of the path to the volcano, the climb up is very simple via a well-trodden road and signs. Slope and terrain simple and manageable even with sneakers.
