The summit caldera of Apoyeque volcano is filled by a scenic lake. The age of the latest eruption of Apoyeque is not known, but human footprints underlie pumice deposits thought to originate from Apoyeque volcano or a nearby vent beneath Lake Managua. This view is from the west caldera rim with the Chiltepe Hills in the background.
