Great accomodations in Huehuetenango
Published February 1st, 2007 in Just backpacking....
Why look for more if you can have a nice playground all around, clear sky, fresh air and weather?
Here the soft grass provides you a nice support for your back taking out any residual stress you might have. There are plenty of trees nearby and enough rock to climb and boulder. Check that big rock near the tent, solid and clean.
As a guest on this lands at Huehuetenango, you can enjoy nice talks with the locals, who also prepare great natural meals. The sun appears fairly early and the moon shines with all its brightness. All this from $0.00!!! free!!! You don’t need to make reservations.
The water is cold but is no problem at all. It has been proven that helps you to feel awake in the early morning, having therapeutic effects on your health.
And where is this place?
It is named Chiaval, located in Huehuetenango at almost 5 hours driving from Guatemala City. No hotels, no restaurants there… They just cannot compete with the surrounding beauty. Too far to go? nah, make a quick stop at Quetzaltenango and continue the next day. You will only need a couple of days.
On the cold season (november) you can enjoy some fresh ice on the tent in the morning and cold water on your Camelbak. The ice is also free over there. Enjoy.

This place.. (Huehuetenango) is simply beautiful.
