Puerta del Diablo (Devil's Gate) near Panchimalco, El Salvador, is a stunning natural rock formation offering panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Lake Ilopango, and the San Salvador volcano. Accessible by car or local bus/taxi followed by a moderate walk/hike to the viewpoints, it's suitable for both solo and guided visits, though a local guide is recommended for more adventurous exploration or if seeking local insights. The best time to visit is during the dry season (November to April) for clear skies and safer trails, as the rainy season can lead to slippery conditions and obscured views. The approximate cost is low, typically involving a small entrance/parking fee and transport; a typical visit lasts 1-3 hours. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and be aware of their surroundings, especially if engaging in activities like rock climbing or rappelling which are popular here.
