As you leave town you will zig-zag our way up a volcano to 8,500 feet of elevation, and cross canyons on your way to Lake Atitlan. As you arrive at the lake we’ll see amazing vistas of the coastline and surrounding volcanoes. Tonight you will spend the night in town of Panajachel right by the lake with wonderful views. You can enjoy a drink and watch the sunset come down over the water.

You’ll head out in the morning for nice long day riding North to the Cuchumatanes Mountain Range – a large saw-like range of mountains that cut across the country. Today you’ll experience a wide range of terrain, climates, and cultures. You will have fantastic riding all day with great views. You will sleep deep in the hills in small mountain town. It’s an area where the local mayan population still wears their traditional woven clothing, and tourists rarely visit.

Day 4 Sierra de los Cuchumatanes - Cobán - 170

7 hours riding, 0-20% off pavement

Today’s riding is as memorable as any you’ve ever done. You’ll wind through mountains and hills of the Guatemalan countryside all day as you head East towards the center of the country. You’ll zig zag through ravines, mountain lookouts, and sleepy roadside Mayan towns. Today is all about the riding, and the wonderful places a motorcycle can take you. You’ll have great photo opportunities, and a fun mix of dirt and pavement sections. You’ll spend the night in a cute hotel in a small local town in Central Guatemala and get a feel for what life is like in the hills.
