Calderas Natural Park - Need An Adrenalin Rush?
by: Enrique Sanchez

What does Calderas Natural Park have to do with an adrenalin rush?

My wife and I were curious about extreme sports. Last year I promised her that we will try them someday. And I always keep my word. We opted for Calderas Natural Park. One of my best friends recommended it to me. Mountain bike

It is located in the kilometer number 52. In the road to Pacaya. Basically it's an eco-tourism attraction. Tons of things to do here. Climbing the volcano Pacaya, rappel, mountain bike, and much more!

Before you go there, make sure you have the proper equipment. For starters there are no stores near.

  • Food and water are needed.
  • First-aid kit, sun protection and
  • a change of clothes.

You wouldn't want to stay wet after taking a swim. Like I did!

The place is really clean and safe. You'll be able to experience thrilling adventures. 

The "Canopy Monkey Trip" is a must.  An adrenalin rush experience..

Like volcanoes..you're luck.  The Pacaya volcano is just 3 kilometers away from the Calderas Natural Park. Pacaya volcano ascent is fun!  Somewhat challenging because of the sulfur smoke. My advice is to follow previous footprints.

Rappel at Caldera's Natural Park is really exciting.  Aren't familiar with the term rappelling, let me enlighten you. Basically it is a sport when you descend of a cliff or wall using a rope. It has become really popular among tourists.

Ever wanted to ride a mountain bike?  Ride through challenging trails. No matter what your expertise you'll find a trail to match. While you ride enjoy the wonders Mother Nature has provided.  In a splendor so magnificent I do not have the words to begin to express!

If rappel at Caldera's Natural Park wasn't fun enough for you..  Good news...

Especially for swimming lovers. Calderas Natural Park offers you snorkeling!   Fun and easy.  Partying with the varied marine life. Also, forgot to mention..

You have to try the canopy tour! Canopy

It provides a particular adrenalin rush.  Zipping across the tree tops in a wire harness. 33 meters above forest floor..  Together with the birds, squirrels monkeys!  So close you could reach out and touch them.

Calderas Natural Park opens the whole week. From 8 am to 6 pm. You can also call to the Park and ask someone to wait for you at the lake. Something you can't miss is camping on the shore of the lake.  For more info go to their website: http://www.parquenaturalcalderas.com/

Enjoy your new thrilling adventure!
