Below the Volcanoes: Trails Through Central America's Heartland
There are trails that test the body, and there are trails that change the soul.
Below the Volcanoes: Trails Through Central America's Heartland is a deeply personal account of walking across one of the most geologically alive and culturally layered regions on earth.
Told in an immersive first-person voice, the journey begins beneath the cathedral shadows of Antigua, Guatemala, where the twin volcanoes Acatenango and Fuego paint the sky with ash and wonder. From there, the narrative winds through Honduras' ancient Maya ruins, El Salvador's flower-covered highlands, Nicaragua's volcanic islands, and Costa Rica's rain-drenched forests-each step revealing a story of resilience, tradition, and transformation.
More than a travelogue, this book becomes a mirror of introspection. Along forest paths and lava slopes, the writer discovers not only the physical beauty of Central America but also the living rhythm that connects its people to the earth. Farmers tending coffee beneath the shadow of fire, guides who listen to the breath of mountains, and children who laugh even as the ground trembles-all become part of a tapestry that blurs the line between myth and memory.
Blending poetic observation with the raw intimacy of the trail, Below the Volcanoes captures the paradox of a land that is both fragile and eternal. Each volcano, each storm, each silence becomes a teacher. For readers drawn to adventure, culture, and the spirit of the wild, this book offers both a map and a meditation-a call to walk with purpose, to listen to the land, and to remember that beneath every path lies the heartbeat of the world itself.
Whether you are a hiker, a traveler, or a dreamer of distant horizons, this is a journey you will feel long after the last page.
