ILAMATEPEC VOLCANO
Also known as the Santa Ana Volcano, El Salvador's highest volcano, is a massive stratovolcano immediately west of Coatepeque caldera. Collapse of the volcano during the late Pleistocene or early Holocene produced a massive debris avalanche that swept into the Pacific, forming the Acajutla Peninsula. Reconstruction of the volcano rapidly filled the collapse scarp.

Located in the department of Sonsonate, the Volcano of Izalco rises to a height of 1910 MASL. It was baptized as the "Lighthouse of the Pacific" by the sailors travelling from North to South America, as its lava explosions and rivers could be observed from several miles offshore when it was active between 1945 and 1965.

SAN BLAS PATEAU
This place is located between three impressive volcanoes, the Cerro Verde volcano that is a National Park, the active volcano of Santa Ana and slightly active Izalco’s volcano. The three volcanoes in such close proximity provide a fascinating lesson in volcanic development and aging. Rich vegetation and forest cover Cerro Verde, the oldest, while Izalco, the youngest, remains almost entirely composed of rough volcanic rock. Santa Ana lies in the middle, with both plant life and volcanic stone. Hiking the three volcanoes affords three very different and exhilarating experiences.
