A hike in the volcanic crater is interesting - just keep in mind that you have to go up again later. We were there in the midday heat, which was "suboptimal" for the climb ...

The first few meters of the path are covered with stone slabs, then it continues downhill on loose, sometimes slippery ground. No places to stop for refreshments.
