The route follows the most scenic and accessible trail. On the first day we start a 4–6 hour climb to our campsite. From here you can enjoy spectacular views while eating dinner around the campfire and getting some rest or continue with the additional excursion to Volcano Fuego (3–4 h).
On the second day, we begin the pre-dawn climb to the summit (1.5 h), in time for sunrise, then return to camp for breakfast before beginning the descent and returning to Antigua around 1pm.​
