Itinerary
Your Ometepe nature experience starts at the Peña Inculta nature reserve where you see lava rocks overgrown by primary forest, home to white-faced monkeys, howler monkeys, squirrels, iguanas, bats and many birds. After hiking the reserve for approximately 45 minutes, you visit Hacienda Finca Magdalena, a community-run farm founded in 1888, where you get insight into the process of organic coffee cultivation. A short hike brings you to a site with remnants of pre-Columbian times. Your last stop is Ojo de Agua, a pristine natural spring surrounded by dense forest.

About Isla de Ometepe
Ometepe is an island of two volcanoes rising from Lake Nicaragua, joined by a low neck of land, with forest trails, beaches and pre-Columbian carvings.
Ometepe is shaped like an hourglass, two volcanoes linked by a narrow isthmus in the middle of Lake Nicaragua. Concepción, an active cone of 1,610 metres, is almost perfectly symmetrical, while the older Maderas is forested and holds a lake in its crater. Ferries cross from the mainland to Moyogalpa, the main port, and the smaller town of Altagracia lies on the other side of Concepción.
