A Front-Row View of "Don Goyo"
From the grounds of Hacienda Panoaya near Amecameca, this live webcam looks toward the colossal cone of Popocatépetl, rising to 5,393 metres. The volcano's near-perfect symmetry dominates the horizon above the State of Mexico highlands.
An Active Giant
Popocatépetl is among North America's most restless volcanoes, venting a continuous plume of gas and ash monitored around the clock by Mexico's CENAPRED. Affectionately called Don Goyo, the peak is joined to neighbouring Iztaccíhuatl by the historic Paso de Cortés.
Landscape and Surroundings
The camera takes in the broad agricultural valley of Amecameca, a traditional highland town at the volcano's foot. This real-time vantage offers a distinct perspective from cameras stationed higher on the mountain.
