Coatepeque lake:
Just 1.5h from Santa Ana, we went to visit the lake of Coatepeque whose name is coming from the Nahuatl language and means "at the snake hill". The lake is a large crater lake and one the largest lakes in El Salvador. It is surrounded by 3 volcanoes: Santa Ana, Coatepeque and Cerro Verde. We had a nice day but a little disappointed that we could not walk too much around the lake because of houses built all around and that was no path (all were private properties). We managed to walk 30min on rocks.
