Hiking

Since El Golfo is on the edge of the national park, you also have a great view of the volcanic craters. A trip to El Golfo is therefore very worthwhile.

Hiking

Highly recommended location. From the parking lot you can very nicely explore between the rocks on small paths, the various lava formations. Impressive view to the volcano over the so-called "sea of lava" which extends over kilometers.
