Pacaya Volcano
Pacaya is an active volcano near Guatemala City that people can hike up on a gentle trail. From the top you can see steam and warm rocks left by the mountain.
It is famous because it is one of the easiest volcanoes to climb and it is still gently active. Visitors love roasting marshmallows over the warm ground near the top.
Hiking
The trail up Pacaya is friendly enough for young explorers with a little help. Along the way you walk through green forest and fields of black volcanic rock.
Volcano Fun
Near the top the ground is warm from the volcano, so guides help visitors toast marshmallows. It feels like a natural campfire made by the earth itself.
Views
From high on Pacaya you can see other volcanoes standing tall in the distance. On clear days the view stretches for many miles across the highlands.
