Thrill-Seekers, Meet Your Next Adventure: Volcano Boarding!
Slide Down a Volcano – Yes, It’s a Thing!
Hey Adventurers!
Ever thought about swapping snowy slopes for volcanic ash? If you’re ready to combine hiking, adrenaline, and an unforgettable story, let us introduce you to volcano boarding – a wild ride down Nicaragua’s iconic Cerro Negro volcano. Yes, you heard that right: sliding down an active volcano on a sled!
Here’s the gist: you’ll hike up a steep black slope (don’t worry, the views make it worthwhile), suit up in protective gear, grab a sled, and ride down the ashy slopes at speeds up to 50 mph. It’s as thrilling as it sounds!
Why Try Volcano Boarding?
Experience the rush of sliding down one of the youngest volcanoes in Central America.
Add an epic story to your adventure log. ("Oh, you skied? I sledded down a volcano.")
It's the perfect mix of challenging hike and exhilarating descent.
What You Need to Know:
Where: Cerro Negro, near Leon, Nicaragua.
Tours Include: Safety gear, sled, guides, and sometimes snacks.
Cost: Around $30–50 per person.
Best Time to Go: Dry season (November to April) for clear skies and the best conditions.
Pro Tips:
Wear sturdy shoes for the hike. The ash is loose and tricky.
Don’t skip the safety briefing. It’s fun, but you’ll want to know how to steer!
Embrace the dirt. You’re going to get ashy – it’s part of the experience.
Think you’re up for it? Whether you’re a seasoned thrill-seeker or just looking to try something out of the ordinary, volcano boarding is a must.
Adventure awaits – and so does Cerro Negro!
