Even if you are not a lover of adventure you have to visit it, even if it is by car; but the best way to do it is to climb it to see the sunrise. This excursion takes you to the tip of the volcano to contemplate the most incredible sunrise you'll ever see, without exaggerating! It is quite an adventure, from the start that is at dawn climbing the mountain in the dark, until you see the first rays of light. The whole odyssey takes about 6 hours, and it might not be for the fearful and weak of heart or ankles, but anyone can do it. It's just a matter of daring!
