1 review of Plateau of Los Cuchumatanes

Exceptional views

The Cuchumatanes is a mountainous region of Guatemala, within the Huehuetenango department to the Verapaz, through Quiche. They are among the tallest mountains of Guatemala, and it's normal to be more than 2000 feet in altitude. There is a plateau where you can go hiking, and spend three days Nebaja in the town of Todos Santos. It's a beautiful walk, with exceptional views. First you start in Nebaj, go to the town of Acul, and start the difficult climb, which takes most of the day. It's a trail on the side of a cliff that takes at least 4 hours. The plateau is at the top, and there are some villages, which are very far from everything and where few people speak Spanish.

These towns are beginning to open to sustainable tourism, and each community has a house for accommodating tourists. They were built by an NGO, and the inhabitants generally ask for 2 euros/night, for maintenance and implementation of community development projects. Don't miss the sweat lodge, a sauna style hot bath, but much smaller, to relax from your day of hiking.
