El Salvador has many natural wonders which visitors can take delight in discovering. In fact, there are so many beautiful and captivating locations to explore in this region that it can be difficult to narrow down the options and figure out where to start.
But we think El Cerro Verde Park is one highlight that should definitely be near the top of the list. Make room in your El Salvador travel agenda to include this in your itinerary.
It is hard to adequately convey the magnificence of this lush green paradise in mere words-it truly is something you must experience in person to fully appreciate-but suffice to say it is unlike anything you have ever seen before.
Among the most striking features that will catch your eye are the three volcanoes that surround the park. In the middle, you will encounter lush forests that will make you feel like you have been transported to another world.
You will have plenty of room to explore, as the area is filled with hiking trails. In fact, the incredible hiking opportunities would be something that draws people from all over the world to this location. Reach the peak of one of the volcanoes and you will be rewarded with the chance to see the craters and lakes located at the top-a sight that relatively few people get to enjoy. While you will feel like you could almost touch the sky from this vantage point, the park's large volume of trees also provide plenty of shade, for times when you want to retreat to cool off from the sun.
This is undeniably a gorgeous and unique landscape, and offers some unrivaled expansive views of the entire region and its scenery. But the appeal of El Cerro Verde Park goes way beyond beauty. You can get a close-up look at the many amazing species of wildlife that call this park home. It is a wonderful spot for bird-watching, or to just have a picnic as you are serenaded by the sounds of all of the entertaining creatures who live here.
