Cerro Negro is a young and active volcano known for its unique volcanic landscape and the popular activity of volcano boarding. It's located near Le贸n and offers stunning views of the surrounding area. Due to the steep slopes and volcanic terrain, accessibility can be challenging for those with mobility issues. While solo visits are possible, guided tours are highly recommended for safety and to learn about the volcano's history and geology. The best time to visit is during the dry season (December to April) to avoid slippery conditions. The cost typically ranges from $30 to $50 USD per person, including transportation, gear rental, and guide services. A typical visit lasts around 4-6 hours, including transportation to and from Le贸n, hiking, and volcano boarding.
