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.
