  Walking on the trails, you will realize that we leave behind the paths full of vegetation and with leafy trees and we will arrive at a flat area without vegetation. This means that we have reached the top of the volcano since due to the continuous eruptions that the volcano makes the plants can not bloom in this area. When we get to the top of the Volcano we can enjoy the experience of roasting marshmallows on volcanic rocks and share with others.
