Private tour. We depart at 6am from San Salvador. The distance to the summit is 3.7 km (2.5 miles) and the elevation gain is 500 mts (1500ft). It should take around 1 hour and 20 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes to reach the summit. We stay for a moment at the summit for pictures and a snack and then we return to the vehicle. After we are done we can have some food on the way or a beer with a great view of Lake Coatepeque.
