Regions at a Glance
León & Northwestern Nicaragua
Revolutionary Roots
León is where the revolution was tele- vised. And to this day, fiery rhetoric flows from this
intellectual powerhouse. The partying here ain't bad either…
The Rim of Fire
The fire theme continues down below and up above in the large nature preserves that en-
circle massive volcanoes, forgotten islets and wide-open spaces of the interior. Come sun-
set, the sun lights up the Pacific night.
Explorers Club
Head north and you get further from the tourist track and closer to the wild. There are vol-
canoes that seldom see a climber and estuaries whose dreadlocked fingers only see a hu-
man wake once in a blue moon.
