"Hiking the Volcano"

[edit]

The "Hiking the Volcano" section of the article reads as followed:

For visitors to Antigua in Guatemala; Acatenango Volcano and the neighbouring Volcan de Fuego (Fire Volcano) can be an irresistible adventure. While it would be unsafe and irresponsible to hike the active Volcan de Fuego, it is possible to hike to the summit of Acatenango and watch Fuego erupt from a safe distance. It is a tough hike up steep slopes with loose volcanic rocks and the altitude can be a challenge for some. There are different options, 1 day or 2 days tours available from Antigua. To get the most from the hike, it is best to spend the night on the volcano, so that it is possible to see Fuego erupt at night, when it is most impressive. Make sure you research the tour company you are doing your trek with well – six tourists died of exposure on Acatenango in January 2017

It just seems to me to be like it is giving advice and does not appear to do so in the unbiased fashion typical of Wikipedia. If you disagree, it is just what I initially thought.

Maybe someone else could have a look at it and fix it up?

My friend, you've got to be kidding. Wikipedia is a hotbed of page nazis and government edits have been documented. Fact check this! As for this article, is typical of Wikipedia. The last sentence is false, as the dead visitors to Acatenango were all Guatemalan, and not tourists. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.148.78.120 (talk) 02:39, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
