The Journey

  • Blue Flames & Sunrise: If the weather is clear, you will have the chance to see the natural blue flame phenomenon.

Safety Note: The descent to the crater lake is currently closed due to increased seismic activity and safety risks. We strongly advise staying at the summit rim for your safety.
