Laguna De Alegria

About

At the crater lake Laguna de Alegria, waters adopt a mesmerizing emerald hue from minerals deep below. Sheltered within the caldera of Tecapa Volcano, this idyllic setting invites exploration along its shore. Hikers can spend hours wandering the well-maintained pathway encircling the lake, taking in scenic vistas of countryside and vivid limestone formations. Along the way, bubbling vents and fumaroles release telltale smells of sulfur, hinting at the underground thermal activity keeping the lake's temperatures bathwater-warm year-round. Picnic areas dotted along the trail provide perfect spots to linger and soak in the natural splendor.
