Cerro Negro Volcano

Cerro Negro Volcano (25 km. northeast of León) – this young, active volcano located just outside of the regional town of Léon, attracts backpacker-type tourists (in particular). Such individuals take sand (and snow) boards and slide down the side of the volcano (since the surface is covered in volcanic sand).

This volcano, unlike others, is far more accessible for the average traveler. Still, some may elect to participate in a tour outfit that’s familiar with this site. Such outfits include: www.tierratour.com, and www.vapues.com
