Tear down the side of an active volcano in this adrenaline-inducing volcano boarding tour. Learn about the history of Cerro Negro in a hike to the top and receive specific instructions along with all necessary gear for this unique experience.You will be picked up from your hotel or a designated pickup area in León and transferred to the Cerra Negro volcano. Formed in 1850, it is the youngest volcano in Central America and has had an eruptive history with the latest eruption in 1999.
Once at the base of the volcano, there will be a hike to the top. This ascent is rough due to loose rocks, a steep inclination and heavy boards. During the climb, there will be stops for information about the history of the volcano and its features such as the craters and lava fields.
Upon arrival near the top, you will receive a short technical briefing from your experienced bilingual guide. From there, you will head to the steeper outer rim for the real point of descent where you will have a chance to do a test run inside the crater. After some final orientations you will then board all the way down to the base of Cerra Negro in the ride of your life.
