23. Let’s Go Sledding!
For adrenaline junkies, climbing Nicaragua’s active Cerro Negro volcano offers a unique twist: volcano boarding. Imagine hurtling down volcanic slopes on a plywood board, an exhilarating mash-up of sledding and extreme sports, with the added thrill of lava and toxic fumes.
It’s a must-try for thrill-seekers, but safety is key – protective goggles and clothing are essential, given Cerro Negro’s history of over 20 eruptions since 1850. Adventure companies like Bigfoot Hostel enhance the experience, providing not just the necessary gear but also snacks and the chance to have your daredevil descent speed clocked by a radar gun.
