If you're all about adventure travel, you'll want to explore the Volcanoes Route of Central America and the stunning views they offer.
Barceló Hotel Group details the various countries where you can get up close and personal with active volcanoes.
Per Barceló blogger, "the ancient royal Path that was built by Spaniards over preexisting indigenous routes, crossing through Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador."
In Guatemala, there's the Pacaya Volcano National Park and the Calderas Lagoon located under an hour away from Guatemala City. A journey to the top by foot here will take you around three hours.
In El Salvador, you'll find three main volcanoes at Los Volcanes National Park: Cerro Verde, Izalco and Santa Ana. Santa Ana is one of the highest points of El Salvador and Izalco last erupted in 1966, which could be seen from the ocean.
