Location, Origin and History
![volcan ilamatepec tour Ilamatepec Volcano](https://elsalvadorviajar.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Volcan-Ilamatepec.jpg)
The spectacular Santa Ana Volcano is located in the department of the same name, approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes from the city of Santa Ana and 65 kilometers from the capital, San Salvador .
With an extension of 2.273 hectares , it is part of the Apaneca mountain range, where the Izalco and Cerro Verde volcanoes are also found, which, together with this Salvadoran colossus, make up the Volcanoes Complex or Route .
Its crater has a circumference of about 15 km in diameter , at the bottom of which you can see a fantastic sulfur lagoon, with an approximate temperature of 25ºC, which increases in the active fumaroles of the volcano .
![volcan ilamatepec tour On the way to Ilamatepec Volcano](https://elsalvadorviajar.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Camino-hacia-el-Volcan-Ilamatepec.jpg)
The Ilamatepec or Cerro Padre , in nahuatl language, received the names of Volcán de los Izalcos , Volcán de Fuego and Volcán de Sonsonate , during the colonial period.
Its geological antecedents date back 2 million years, when there has been a series of varied and irregular eruptions, the last being those of 1904, 1920, and 2005, considered the most destructive.
During this unfortunate event, volcanic activity devastated crops and vegetation in the area, including the villages. In addition to expelling large amounts of ash and large rocks, it caused an avalanche of hot water that forced the evacuation of the area.
![volcan ilamatepec tour Road to Santa Ana Volcano](https://elsalvadorviajar.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Camino-hacia-Volcan-de-Santa-Ana.jpg)
Although the number of fatalities was minimal, the authorities suspended all activities, including tourism, for more than a year, as it was still active.
Climate, flora, and fauna
The weather around Santa Ana Volcan o, on an average day, is usually fresh and delightful, with temperatures between 16°C and 24°C (61°F and 75°F) .
![volcan ilamatepec tour Ilamatepec Volcano Crater](https://elsalvadorviajar.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Crater-del-Volcan-Ilamatepec.jpg)
However, weather change can be noticed at its summit due to the altitude and winds, even more if it is a cloudy day. In the same way, at dawn or dusk, when the sun’s rays diminish, the temperature drops noticeably between 6°C and 8°C.
The extensive area of Ilamatepec contains more than 125 species of trees in its three ecosystems, getting in the areas with lava flow, lichens, grasses, agaves, and lycopods, as well as trees such as wax wood, pinabete, and sapuyulo, all in contrast to orchids and bromeliads.
![volcan ilamatepec tour Climb the Santa Ana Volcano](https://elsalvadorviajar.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Escala-el-Volcan-de-Santa-Ana.jpg)
Meanwhile, in the paramo zone , there are some unique plant species in this territory, with broad, soft, and flattened leaves since they have hairs due to their adaptation to the strong winds and sulfurous gases that come out of the volcano.
Monitoring its fauna , which is smaller than its flora, allows the sighting of reptiles and amphibians. Also, you could find mammals such as deer, coyotes, ocelots, and the spiny fox, as well as birds of prey such as the short-tailed hawk, mountain hawk, and black eagle.

The Transport
4 reasons to choose this activity, accesibilities of the activity.
The walk begins on the slopes of the volcano, on the side of the road to Cerro Verde. This area is known as El Tibet and there is a path that you must walk for approximately 15 minutes to reach the official entrance of the National Park. At the entrance there is a bathroom and snacks available. Then you walk in the forest for about an hour. There are quite steep parts so you should try not to get tired before time. Then you begin to walk on volcanic rock, this part is more complicated since the steps are more irregular. After 2 hours at a slow pace you will reach the top where you can appreciate the best views of the country on a clear day.

¿Estás listo para una experiencia impresionante descubriendo un volcán activo?
Este es un increíble tour de aventura hasta el cráter del Volcan de Santa Ana (o Volcan Ilamatepec) una joya escénica escondida. Con una altura de 2,384 metros sobre el nivel del mar. El Volcán de Santa Ana, más conocido como el Ilamatepec, es el volcán más alto y más voluminoso de la cordillera de la costa en la región. También es el tercer punto más alto en El Salvador.
Su historia geológica se remonta a unos 2 millones de años, con erupciones irregulares, como el caso que Ilamatepec demostró su fuerza en 2005, con una erupción que destruyó la vegetación, los pueblos y cultivos.
El camino hacia el cráter es estrecho y tiene una dificultad media. Durante el recorrido, se encuentra una serie de puntos de interés turístico de madera (miradores), donde se puede admirar la belleza del paisaje natural que rodea el Complejo de Lagos y Volcanes. En la periferia del cráter, los vientos son fuertes y serás envuelto en nubes. Desde allí se puede ver la laguna verde esmeralda en el interior del volcán. Además, tendrás la oportunidad de ver un hermoso paisaje del lago de Coatepeque, Volcán de Izalco, Cerro Verde y el Océano Pacífico.
¡La vista es impresionante!
