Durata:

Descrizione
Explore the lush forests of Cinquera on a guided hiking tour from San Salvador. Discover the history of the area, visit a hidden wartime tunnel, and cool off in natural spring-fed pools.
Begin your journey in San Salvador and head to Cinquera, a village in the Cabañas department of northern El Salvador. Cinquera was abandoned during the country's civil war in the 1980s and has gradually been resettled by returning residents since the 1992 peace accords. Today, the surrounding forest is a popular destination for hikers and birdwatchers due to its recovering biodiversity.
On arrival, hike through the forest with your guide, frequently spotting tropical birds. A highlight of the hike is a visit to a hidden wartime tunnel and an underground structure known as the "Vietnamese kitchen," which was used by guerrilla combatants during the conflict to cook without producing visible smoke that could reveal their position to aerial reconnaissance. At the end of the hike, cool off in natural spring-fed pools in the area before returning to San Salvador.
