Climb the main crater of Rincón de la Vieja Volcano on this challenging hike. You will visit a trail that leads you through different types of vegetation and trees to the summit at a height of about 5,925 feet (1,806 meters) with astounding views. On very clear days, you can see the Caribbean Sea, the great Nicaraguan Lake, and the Pacific Ocean! Located close to the top are the freshwater Yiguerro lagoon and the highest point, called the Von Seebach.
