Discover Pacaya Volcano in Guatemala

The Pacaya Volcanoa protected area strategically located on the border of Escuintla and Guatemala departments in the southeastern part of the country. Standing as the highest and most prominent peak, Pacaya reaches an elevation of 8,373 feet (2,552 meters), surrounded by an additional 13 craters.

In 2021, Volcano Pacaya exhibited intense activity with powerful explosions, ash showers, and rivers of lava stretching up to 2.4 miles for over 70 days, posing significant threats to nearby communities. These petrified lava rivers, visible from various angles, trace the volcano’s slopes, marking the paths of past eruptions. Notably, the years 1998 and 2010 witnessed the most vigorous eruptions recorded in recent history. The 1998 eruption propelled volcanic ash and rocks up to 16,000 feet (5,000 meters), while the 2010 eruption also saw ash and rock showers reaching heights of 4,000 feet. Both events blanketed much of Guatemala City, situated about 50 km away, in volcanic ash.

This tour not only promises adventure but also a profound connection with nature’s raw power. Experience the thrill of Pacaya, one of Guatemala’s most dynamic and accessible volcanoes.
