Hiking

An experience you won't forget. Nice and slowly upwards. We were lucky and were rewarded with sun on the ascent. It rained briefly. But you always have to reckon with a change in the weather. Once at the top, there was delicious potato soup

Hiking

With a clear view you have wonderful views. With the knowledge that it is an active volcano and that the summit has also been closed since October 22, you see things with different eyes. Always with the thought that he can break out at any time!
