Cerro Negro Volcano

Cerro Negro, Nicaragua’s youngest and one of its most active volcanoes, rises nearly 1,700 feet (518 meters) above the landscape. Named for its black, ashy slopes, this stratovolcano is located near the city of León. The volcano’s rocky pathways lead visitors to its summit, where they can experience the unique thrill of ‘volcano boarding,’ sliding down the steep, dark slopes on specially designed boards. This accessible and dynamic site offers a blend of natural wonder and adventurous activity.
