What equipment to bring?

The volcano is located on a very warm area, so at the beginning of the hike you will feel very warm. But as you ascend the wind will lower the temperatures so you want to bring a windbreaker or even a jacket depending on the season. 

Bring your sunblock, loose pants and better if you wear a long sleeves shirt.

Bring a hat.

Bring strong shoes with a good track sole. The volcanic rocks at the plateau are very tricky to walk on.

If you have one, bring a small backpack (ask us for available backpacks to lent you, as we are always short of them)

Ad a horse one way (ascend)

(per horse o/w in GTQ)
