Located about 10 kilometers from Lanquìn, Semuc Champey is one of the most beautiful spots in Guatemala.  A natural limestone bridge, 300 meters long, and a series of freshwater pools running along its length,  make Semuc Champey well worth the effort to get there.  The pools, ranging in color from turquoise to emerald green, are fresh-water and warm to swim in.  Camping is also available.  You will find a large variety of butterflies

HOW TO GET HERE: Buses leaves from Coban at 5am, 7am and 3pm to Lanquin Caves. Then look for a truck, or sometimes a bus, that goes to Champey. Walking is not recommended,  as it is long and hot.  It is much easier to take a bus.  There are several tour operators that offer this service. Click here.
