  • Acatenango

    Posted on by Kerri & Matt Comment

    Fuego is a volcano that’s almost always having little eruptions.

    Next to it is Acatenango

    From Acatenango there are good views of Fuego.

    We have finally learned our lesson regarding hiking so we took a 4×4 up.

    So we only had to walk through the clouds for 45 minutes.

    Fuego is very noisy.

    Sometimes it makes loud booms like fireworks followed by thuds as the big rocks settle.

    Other times it just rumbles like thunder.

    There are nice views of the sleepy volcano too, but that’s less exciting.

    There is a lot of ash blowing around up here, but only because it is cold.

    The ash from the volcano blows the other way.

    We will be spending the night up here so we can see the volcano in the dark.

    We have a luxury tent for 9 people.
