Meanwhile, the caldera lake and surrounding volcanic landscape gradually come into view. A coffee break is also served at the top.
After enjoying the sunrise, take a guided walk around to explore the craters, including seeing the site of the year 2000 eruption. Your guide will explain the geological history and volcanic activity of the region. Finally, begin your steady descent down the mountain paths.
