Popocatépetl is an active stratovolcano of 5,452 m in central Mexico, standing southeast of Mexico City between the states of Puebla and Morelos. It forms a pair with the neighboring Iztaccíhuatl and is one of the best-known mountains in the country. Nahuatl for smoking mountain, its name fits its plume, and the surrounding park offers forest trails.
