... Spectacular nature view... and a fantastic new National Park to add to my collection👍... El Salvador is known as "The Country of the Volcanoes"... the smallest country in Central America... Santa Ana is still an active volcano... last eruption in 2005... you can hike along a narrow trail up the volcanic summit... you will cross through different environments... from cloud forest to blank plains... with the Pacific Ocean in the distance... this volcano is habitat for hundreds of species of flora and fauna... from the top it offers beautiful panoramic views to the surrounding volcanoes, scenic landscapes and valleys... Thanks a lot William!!【ツ】
