Cerro Negro Express - Hike

Description

Climbing to the top of the Cerro Negro is an impressive experience, and the climb is surprisingly easy. This active volcano, the youngest in the Western Hemisphere and one of the most accessible in Nicaragua (altitude 675 m.) is totally covered with black sand and rock. From the top, you will have an incredible view of the surrounding area and the Maribios volcanic chain, however the descent is probably the most enjoyable.

Once you have had your fill of the view from the top, descend the steep slope by foot, using the sandy volcanic material to control your speed. Hiking or sports shoes are strongly recommended. An interesting fact is that Frenchman Eric Barone broke the world speed record by descending the slope of the Cerro Negro by mountain bike!
