The hub of El Salvador's three most visited volcanoes: Santa Ana (Ilamatepec), Izalco and Cerro Verde. Well-maintained trails, an orchid garden, spectacular lookouts and the historic Mountain Hotel (now Casa 1800).
The only national park that requires no advance form — you can just show up. Guides are hired at the trailhead.
How much is the entry fee?
$3 for locals / $6 for foreigners + $3-4 for the mandatory volcano guide.
Do I need an advance form?
No, it's the only park that doesn't require one.
Can I climb all 3 volcanoes in one day?
Possible but very demanding. We recommend 1-2 per visit.
What's nearby?
Lake Coatepeque (30 min), the city of Santa Ana and the Ruta de las Flores.
