#108 | The Great Guatemala Volcano Trek: Standing Before Volcán de Acatenango and the Erupting Fuego Volcano with the Just Trek Crew
Tuesday, 31 March, 2026

In this episode, I share my most unforgettable adventure yet: my first major international trek with the Just Trek Crew in Guatemala, hiking Volcán Acatenango for a front-row view of Volcán de Fuego erupting. I break down how this dream trip finally came together, our crew lineup, and our day-by-day itinerary from landing in Guatemala City and exploring Antigua to the Ox Expeditions briefing and gear prep. I recount the relentless climb through shifting landscapes, the dust, cold, altitude, and the brutal “double whammy” push to Fuego Ridge—where the clouds finally opened and we watched cinematic explosions and lava flows light up the night. After skipping the 4 a.m. summit, we descended, reset in Antigua, visited Hobbitenango, recorded a quick crew recap, and even caught Fuego erupting again during rooftop dinner.RSVP to the Pod 6 Year Anniversary Party in Los Angeles on https://tinyurl.com/2p62j22zFollow Ox Expeditions on http://instagram.com/oxpeditionsBook your Volcano Trek w/ Ox Expeditions on https://oxexpeditions.com/Follow Just Trek on https://instagram.com/just.trekShop Just Trek merch on ⁠⁠https://www.justtrek.net/shop⁠⁠Listen to more podcast episodes on ⁠⁠https://www.justtrek.net⁠⁠Want to send me a message?
