This epic hike in Guatemala takes you to the summit (3976m) of the most beautiful volcano in Central America with incredible views of the active volcano Fuego . It's hard, it's unforgiving, but it's an adventure you will never forget! Probably one of the best hikes in the world.

Poor wife of urs doesnt have her ring any longer? ^^
If our grandpa will get crazy again that'll be safest place on Earth
Very cool man 👍. I feel like i am watching the Michael Schumacher of slightly above average vacation hikers being tested on camera 😆😉
Hope you're still good! My side hurt, just watching this...
hehe good pun!
Im a Guatemalan living/studying in Germany and im so happy to see you visit my beautiful country ❤️🇩🇪🇬🇹 (love your videos btw😃)
If your country is beautiful why are you in Germany?.
@@jessyhuno5087 too much corruption in Guatemala and too much violence and poverty occurring everyday. But rather than that it's a beautiful country to live in based on the landscape.
@@freddy1641 it's a poo hole

Great - we loved your adventure!
So glad! Thanks for stopping by! 😄
now Guatemala is definitely go in my bucket list.
it looks amazing!!
To be honest hiking is one of the things that I would to do before I die. It isnt easy but it's an amazing view once you get at a very tall viewpoint. For you, that was incredible. Wunderbar, mein Freund! 😎
You go, guy!!! Thanks for this....beautiful pictures, scenery, and your stamina and grit. Das ist sehr gut!!!
“Wtf is the jungle”. 😂 welcome to Central America. Have fun and enjoy our land.
Some of your best work ever, Radical Living! 🌋
I ve been there as well in 2019. Guatemala is a great country. Greetings from Berlin!
I have seen northen lights in Norway last year. Now my next objective of life is to see a volcano and it looks like a nice option
Nice! Northern lights is still on my bucket list 😃
It was possible to see the Northern Lights even in Germany this year
@@inotoni6148 there are good ones in Southern Italy
@@fynnschumann7661 What? Do you mean the volcanoes? I mean the Northern Lights
Beautiful 🥰, thrilling and heroic , Kudos to you!!
I'm happy to see that you have hiked Volcano Acatenango. It's been my favourite volcano so far.
Beautiful. Beautiful hike. Beautiful country. Beautiful people. I visited Guatemala in 2004.
Your videos helped me made the decision of moving out to Berlín from Guatemala, so watching this is incredibly cool. ❤
That's awesome! Hope you'll enjoy Berlin!
What an epic journey!! I don't think I've ever went from laughing to being in tears of awe so quickly. 😂😭 thank you all for sharing (and suffering)!!
😄 so glad! Thanks for stopping by!
I'm glad Mother nature bless you with that beautiful morning.
You went up to that ridge and the next morning to the top of Acatenango,
really?
I've watched plenty of Acatenango videos, but this is the first of somebody doing both.
I really admire you, your legs are certainty made of steel.
good luck on your travels.
Thanks Marcoss! The hike to Fuego is only something for seasoned hikers, i seriously don't know how i made it back haha, the stick was carrying me
Wow Amigo!! I'm so proud of you!! See, life is not all about partying in Berlin ("although it's nice 😉) !! I'm glad to see you are traveling the world, seeing mother nature and embracing every second of it... Even if the hike kicked your ass, lol! Gut Job Cabrón! Liebe Grüße aus Ansbach, Deutschland ♥ ♥ ♥
Thanks! Much appreciated! 😄
Loving this radical living goes National Geographic style :D !!
Dude I just loved ur sense of humor 🤣🤣🤣 very nice video n entertaining.
Thank you so much 😁
Awesome experience! Thanks für sharing. Cheers.
I did that myself! One of my best experiences EVER! So good!!!!
Well done my Berlin friend and big respect to you guys for the big effort. I'm really glad and a little jealous at the same times you showed us this stunning looking piece of land. Keep doing what you doing, thaaanks
Berlin is interesting and exciting. Of course.But this is your best video in my opinion. Waw! Well done. Amazing.👍👍👍👋
Awesome, thanks! Glad you think so 😃
Wow, that view at the end was incredible!
Hi there! Im from Guatemala and i love your youtube channel. Its good to see that you liked the hike in Acatenango Volcano. ✌
Very cool! Great video would love to see more like this of you hiking and exploring the world, very funny and entertaining and enjoy your lotr commentary, I thought I was the only one who compared every hike to lotr but apparently not 😅
Spectacular coverage of your hike to Acatenango.
Brilliant, thanks for sharing, hard hike eh, need hiking boots my friend
love these travel vlog videos
You did it! I can't imagine how scary it felt sleeping on an active volcano with rumbling every 15mins
That was some amazing views. Must have been something else seeing all that in person.
Amazing! What an awesome adventure! Thank you for sharing🙂
Thanks for stopping by! 😃
Great video, glad I finally found it! Nice to relive this amazing adventure. -Jon (and Kate) from the trip
Heyyyy there😄, yeah it was for sure one of our major highlights in LATAM, will never forget those view
Wow, what a great video!
Awesome shots of the lava flow, when you could actually see it ;)
The quality of your travelogue videos have really gotten good since I started following you! Great video, really interesting. Hiking up a volcano is something you do when you’re young, it will be a great memory for you😀😀(I doubt I would have made it to the top😁😅)
Thanks mate! You could take the horse to go up 😉
@@RadicalLiving that I could do! 😀😀
Do they allow you to drive a monster truck up to the volcano? 🌋 That would be the easiest way.
Awesome hike! And awesome views! 👍
Super cool that you did that hike! Damn, you doing the Fuego as well is admirable! It is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience! When we did it, we absolutely loved it as well. Glad you are getting to see some of Guate 🇬🇹. If you need any tips, let us know.
Loved this format!
oh thats so beautiful
That was great. Congratulations.
thanks! 🙂
Beautiful shots! That sunrise by the erupting volcano... 👌 Nice work! I love the video, what an experience!! A pair of ruined shoes? After that sunrise view, worth it 💯
Scrolled down my feed looking for something light hearted in these clown world times. Thanks as per.
You're welcome, thanks for stopping by! 😸
Epic!!!
Will start my South America trip next month and this place is exactly what I am looking for.
Thank you and keep it going^^
Great! Have fun mate!
The best video I have seen in long time...u r the best
So glad! Thanks! 😄
Girlfriend's list of natural phenomenon to be avoided:
1) Earthquakes
2) Volcanos
3) Tsunamis
4) Blizzards
5) Tornados
She's originally from Chile and has experienced the top 3 personally.
I haven't experienced a Tsunami or Tornado, yet.
Really not looking forward, lol.
@@marcossperezzy6281 ditto, here also. I know two people who were hit by lightning, but no one who has won the lottery.
I think this is one of the most rewarding hikes to do! I went there a bit over a year ago and I loved it!
But I think the most difficult hike so far for me has been in parque del Cocuy in Colombia, also super beautiful 🤩
I'm from Honduras but live in the states and I'm so jealous Guatemala is fkin beautiful. I'll be there one day.
You're still alive!! 🍻
As a Guatemalan, im so happy seeing you visit! I actually visited Berlin because of your videos lol
Loved Guatemala! Hope you enjoyed your time in Berlin^^
What amazing memories! I did this hike in April 2022♥️♥️♥️
increible amigo muchas gracias por tu video
WOW 🤩 what an incredible experience that you had. Truly this is something one probably only sees once in their life. Thank you for the interesting and fun videos! Would love to join you sometime! 🙂
Yes it really was 😄 Cheers
I have never laughed so much watching a travel vlog. Thank you so much. Can't wait to suffer as much as you have! ;)
This was the BEST recap of the hike on You Tube! You got strange to the point, showed us what the trail is like, what to expect. Kept it short but meaty and full of value. OMG thank you so much! :)
Wow, thanks! Glad you enjoyed it^^
soo cool
Man Spike from Notting Hill has come a long way 🤣 Keep it up Sir! Love your videos!
Thanks for sharing mate. be safe
Awesome x1000!! So amazing!
Lol bro, i remember you from the clubbing videos. I am subscribed because i loved your personality, and so i wasn't really expected such a nice travel vlog. Like aesthetically and overall as a guiding experience, it was very well done. Kudos to you, looking forward for more. It makes sense, since at least the travel vloggers that i do follow (harald baldr, bald and bankrupt), those ones are successful not just because of the travel experience but also because they mix in their unique personalities within the videos, to get the best out of locals and otherwise, i can see the potential of something similar coming from you. All the very best.
You are awesome 😎 cool 🌋
Ausgezeichnet !!Tolles Video.💪💝💯
Lieben Dank!
Sos un genio! qué alegre que visitaste Guatemala! Liebe Grüße aus Bonn
I'm from America but live in germany. I think it's funny when you and my girl call shade shadows 😂
Love your videos man. Keep up the great work. This is an awesome channel.
Mind-blowing!
Thank you so very much for all of your efforts and exertion to create this amazing video.
I suffered a spinal cord injury in 2019 and I will never be able to hike again.
This was actually one of my bucket list things to do 😢 so thank you for sharing
Awesome video. Added to my list of places to visit.
Cool stuff dude, fun travel video
thanks!
Halo. I went looking for volcano on Antigua and found you. Nice surprise. Good on you.
Wooah! I didn't know you were in Guatemala! Welcome to my crazy country!
thanks! it was super beautiful, also Lago Atitlan
I'm glad you liked it!! You can also go to El Paredon Beach or to the Caribbean side in Rio Dulce, Izabal! Enjoy the journey!
Hope you're enjoying your stay there
Very much, thanks 😄
I am happy for you man!
I got to hike acatengango last minute on a missions trip, had to work all day long at the construction site and had ti have a thank you dinner. Hiked through the night, with like no gear. This was my girdt hike ever so I had literally an old pair of work shoes and a bunch of Photography equipment. I thought my heart would explose lol
Did the trip last year in November. Had a lot of fun! The hole country is incredible!!!
I really want to do this hike some time. The vulcano is magical.
Just avoid rainy season and you’ll be fine.
Wow…thank you
Congratulations to this cute Guy. For this. , Wow. MAJESTY in all the Splendor of Mother Nature, GUATEMALA is A PARADISE Bleesed by Exhuberant Nature .
You are so kind 😊 It was truly beautiful! Go there if you get the chance!
@@RadicalLiving i did. Long time ago.
Großartiges Video! Hast du die Dronenaufnahmen auch selber gemacht? Sehr beeindruckend. Du hast viel mehr Follower verdient. Auch wenn ich den cineastischen Anspruch, den du an deine Videos hast, sehr schätze, würden einfache Vlogs vom Alltag in deinen bereisten Ländern sicher auch gut ankommen 👍😁. Bitte weiter so, ganz toller Kanal!
Vielen Dank für die lieben Worte Leo! Ja die Drohne hab ich im Schlepptau 😉
Epic video 👏
Very like mountains
Your shots are awesome - motivating me for my upcoming Acantenango hike in December!
thanks^^ enjoy!
Guatemalan who lived in the North West, VERY SIMILAR except the rain in Guatemala is warm. Great video! 👍 💙 🇬🇹
Ich bin so neidisch, but also happy for you. What a cool hike! 😎 you ever want to swim in a volcano (full of water, don't worry) come to Oregon.
Amazing video ! Sounds like you were getting a bit of Altitude sickness .. but still worth it ;D
thanks! yes absolutely worth it! 😄
Great video you have inspired me to go here
Go for it!
That looks awesome...and collossally uncomfortable at the same time.
It was beautiful bro thans For visited our country 🇬🇹🙏🏻🤩 I'll see you soon 🇬🇹
OMG, when traveling far and going on nature adventures I always pray „pls no Germans here“ Can you imagine staying there and watching the volcano and suddenly a swabian voice from behind saying „Sybille , ich vermisse hier schon meine Spätzle und maultaschen“ 😂😂
70% of the group were Germans^^ they are everywhere, no escaping! 😅
@@RadicalLiving 🙈🙈😂😂😂 yes, unbelievable. Any Hans&Sybille as well?😂😂
This is definitely on my bucketlist lol but I'm not an experienced hiker, I figured I'll have to train before attempting this hike 😍
Just do it! We didn't train, you'll make it^^
@@RadicalLiving hope they won't leave me lol
A chubby guy can also make it?@@RadicalLiving
3:57 Legolas with a beard is ready hahhaha
This hike really was so hard but honestly one of the best days of my life! I took the recommended 4 litres of water and only used about 2 so I dragged up all this water weight for absolutely no reason haha! I've always wanted to see a volcano erupting and especially in Guatemala so it was a HUGE tick off the bucket list to finally see it! Its such a rewarding feeling when you finally see the volcano erupt after such an intense hike! It was so cloudy when I did the hike so I was SO relieved when we got to the top and could actually see Volcan Fuego haha, I was so worried that we wouldn't be able to see it with all the cloud!
"Restricted area, we shouldn't continue, but that is exactly what we are going to do" haha!
Yes also one of my most precious memories from traveling, such a cool place!
I want to do it in December. Is it worth it doing the fuego extension?
“Why the F*** is there jungle now?”. 😂😂😂😂. Love the video!
💗💗💗
Nice!
You have to travel to Georgia see Tbiliisi and our huge mountains! ;) Also if you decide you will have couch for free. Welcome! ✌️
Thanks 😄Tbiliisi is for sure on my bucket list, only heard great things from there!
@@RadicalLiving Tbiliisi and Georgia in General really so amazing, welcome, if you will need any tips or help just ask. ✌️
Yoy should go to volcan masaya in Nicaragua. At the top you can see the caldera down below
ok thanks, definitely checking that out if i ever make it to Nicaragua 😁
11:25 Nice.
This is amazing! Can you share what group you went with? I want to hike this but o would prefer not to do it alone
*A M A Z I N G V I D E O*
Thx bruhhh
Man thats so fucking cool, keep it up!
