VOLCÁN TECAPA & LAGUNA DE ALEGRIA
A volcano at Alegria with hot thermal waters much appreciated by Salvadorans for their healing powers.
The Tecapa volcano, 2 km south of Alegría, has a vast crater that shelters a superb lagoon; it can be accessed and circumnavigated by vehicle. The thermal waters are very popular with Salvadorans, who come here to bathe. The water, naturally rich in sulfur, is renowned for its healing powers. Walkers can follow the Ruta Quemada (4 km), which passes through the lagoon and offers lovely views over the bay of Jiquilisco. Geysers can be seen along the way.
