Pacaya Volcano Day Trip from Antigua

In the option one day, it is for private groups with a minimum of 4. The Pacaya Volcano (2,552 m / 8,370 ft) is one of the most impressive and accessible volcanic landscapes in Guatemala, located within its own national park on the outskirts of the City. This moderate, intermediate-level excursion is perfect for travelers looking for a rewarding but manageable challenge, making it a great option for families or as a warm-up before tackling larger volcanoes like Acatenango and Fuego. For greater ease, local horses can be rented at the start of the trail. We leave Antigua at 7:00 on a picturesque 1.3-hour journey to the start of the trail. As we ascend a network of trails, wide views of the Guatemalan highlands begin to unfold. Upon reaching the foothills of the volcano, we explored the spectacular fields of petrified lava, walking through the volcanic rock, feeling the heat of the geothermal hot spots
