What kind of clothing should I wear?

It gets cold on the volcano before and during sunrise, so it’s essential to dress in layers. Bring warm clothing such as a warm jacket, long pants, a hat, and gloves. Comfortable shoes or sneakers are also a must.

What else should I bring?

A small backpack is useful for carrying essentials. Other items you should consider bringing include:

A camera or smartphone to take photos.
Sunglasses and sunscreen for when the sun comes up.
A face mask or scarf to protect against volcanic dust, especially in windy conditions.
Extra cash for personal expenses or souvenirs.
