With a donation you can empower indigenous children to attend school, build a future and aid in breaking the cycle of poverty.
While hiking with Quetzaltrekkers is an exceptional way to experience Guatemala and support EDELAC, you don’t need to lace up your boots to make a difference. Whether you’re a seasoned trekker or simply someone who believes in the power of education, anyone can become a donor and make a tangible change. Every single donation to us, big or small, has a profound impact: empowering local youth with access to quality education, healthcare and social support.
Whether you choose to donate once or become a monthly supporter, you become part of a passionate community dedicated to fostering generations of educated individuals who contribute to their communities’ well-being.
Every step, every contribution, matters.

Join us on October 29, 2026 for our annual Día de los Muertos trek to Todos Santos Cuchamatan. This special hike follows the same route as our normal 5-day trek from Nebaj – Todos Santos in the Cuchamatanes mountain range but with special itinerary changes to catch a spectacular sunrise on La Torre, the highest non-volcanic peak in Guatemala and witness the famous horse races of Todos Santos.
Catch a glimpse of the races of Todos Santos with this video produced by VICE.
