What to expect
A private 4×4 transfer collects you dockside before first light and delivers you to the trailhead. The two-hour ascent winds through lush cloud forest before opening onto the dramatic caldera edge. Your guide interprets the geology and endemic flora throughout, and a gourmet breakfast hamper awaits at the summit. The descent follows a different trail, revealing coastal vistas all the way back to the vehicle.
