Volcán Concepción rises from the western half of Ometepe Island in Lake Nicaragua, while Mérida lies on the island’s Volcán Maderas side. The two volcanoes give Ometepe its distinctive silhouette. Concepción is active, and its steep, nearly symmetrical cone stands out above the lakeshore; clouds gathering around its summit can soften a shape that otherwise looks sharply defined against the sky.
