Explorando el Valle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Explorando el Valle is a brand new organisation to Quetzaltenango that not only offers an enjoyable and unique guiding experience, but is helping to provide sustainable income to villages surrounding the Santa Maria Volcano<\/strong>. The organisation was set up by a group of young people from communities in \u2018El Valle de Palajunoj\u2019 in collaboration with a community tourism project conducted by the Swiss NGO, Helvetas. The aim of the project is to convert the amazing local knowledge of the young people taking part, into an entrepreneurial opportunity for the community to enter the tourism market, assisting their sustainable development.<\/p>\n

Aside from the fact that you are aiding a great cause in the support of the entrepreneurship of these local communities, we found this to be a tour unlike anything else you can experience in Xela<\/strong>. While they offer the popular hikes of Santa Maria and Santiaguito, they also offer some local walks that you would not find from larger tour companies in Xela. These are great for people that want to experience the amazing outdoors, but don\u2019t necessarily want an 8 hour hike! But the biggest bonus is the opportunity to see these communities and the surrounding environment through the eyes of a local, as the guides make a real effort to include information about local wildlife and their way of life.<\/p>\n

When we visited, the guides offered really interesting knowledge about their \"\"<\/a>local farms, the medicinal uses they have for plants, stories from the ancient Mayan religion and we even got to do some bird watching along the way. If that wasn\u2019t enough you can even book in a lunch provided by a local women\u2019s organisation who serve up some really tasty local traditional food for after your trek<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s an idea of the kind of walks and hikes you can enjoy with Explorando el Valle (in order of length):<\/p>\n

Parque de Chuicavioc<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Parque de Chuicavioc<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The ecological park, located in the foothills of Cerro Candelaria, began in 2011 and is an important area for the protection and cultivation of local plants and wildlife. The park showcases a big range of medicinal plants, still used today in the surrounding communities<\/strong>, and a big highlight of the tour is the impressive knowledge presented by the guides in relation to this.<\/p>\n

Cueva de Tec\u00fan Uman (Cave of Tec\u00fan Uman)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Cueva de Tec\u00fan Aman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is a relatively easy walk, with very little incline, that takes you through the communities that sit below Santa Maria and a forest packed with wildlife, before arriving at the Cave of Tec\u00fan Uman. Tec\u00fan Uman is a national hero of Guatemala, famous for his battles against the Spanish for the K\u2019iche Mayans<\/strong> in El Valle de Palajuno at the time of The Conquests.<\/p>\n

The cave is a holy place for the Mayan religion and if you are lucky you may even witness a ritual taking place below the cave mouth. You will hike up into the cave, where your guide will describe its story and the reason it is so important for the local Mayan religion.<\/p>\n

Cerro Quemado o La Muela (Molar)<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Cerro Quemado<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is a volcanic dome, which last erupted in 1818, gives a stunning 360 view of the valley down into Xela and the rest of its volcanic landscape. The name \u2018Cerro Quemado\u2019 is actually a Spanish translation of \u2018Catinocjuyub\u2019, given to the volcano by the indigenous Quiche Mayans of Quetzaltenango. It is the only volcanic dome surrounding Xela that has erupted, owing to its unusual formation, but also to its fascinating geological history<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This is a manageable summit for those who want something shorter and with less incline than Santa Maria. While it is possible to hike from Xela, we would recommend \u2018Explorando El Valle\u2019 as the best way to experience this hike as the guiding really offers and different dimension to the trek and takes away the issue of directions.<\/p>\n

Santiaguito<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Santiaguito, or the \u2018little saint\u2019 was created during the eruption in 1902 of Santa Maria when the side of the volcano collapsed to leave the Santiaguito crater. It is an active volcano<\/strong> and therefore you cannot walk the summit but there are some great views from the mirador situated on Santa Maria.<\/p>\n

The hike itself is moderate, making it a great alternative to hiking Santa Maria and not only gives views of Santiaguito, but also the dramatic drop down towards the south coast.<\/p>\n

The bizarrely named volcano is certainly one of the lesser known hiking spots, but should certainly not be overlooked. It is so called for the resemblance to ears of its 7 peaks that tower 3370m above its crater to its south side. The spiky tops give you a breathtaking 360 view of Santa Maria, Santiaguito, Cerro Candelaria and down into the valley all at once<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The guides focus upon the fascinating history of this incredible rock formation, as well as the variety of rare birds that can be spotted from its spiky peaks. There is a great range of ways to do this trek: sunrise, day hike, overnight camping and even a special bird watching package.<\/p>\n
