Puerta del Diablo (Devil's Door) near Panchimalco, El Salvador, is a stunning natural rock formation offering panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Lake Ilopango, and surrounding volcanoes. It's accessible by car or public transport to the base, followed by a relatively easy, short hike on uneven terrain to the viewpoint, making it unsuitable for wheelchairs. While generally safe for solo exploration, wearing sturdy footwear is essential. A typical visit lasts 1-3 hours, allowing time for sightseeing and enjoying the views. The best time to visit is during the dry season (November to April) for clearer skies and safer trails, avoiding the rainy season when paths can be slippery and fog might obscure views. There's a small entrance fee, typically a few dollars, and local vendors offer food and drinks, making the approximate cost low.
