Puerta del Diablo is located about 30 to 45 minutos from San Salvador. It is actually a park which has a cliff that legend says was created when the devil ran through a mountain, or something of the such, depending on who you ask. The cliff wall is perfect for rock climbing and it has a canopy tour.
