Leaving from Todos Santos Cuchumatán, hikers will love this trek that's off the beaten track . Once high up, the view is amazing and, if the sky's clear, you'll get a panoramic view of the volcanoes along the Mexican border all the way to Antigua.
We didn't see another soul and I loved the peace and quiet at the summit, where you can breathe in the vista below.
The descent via La Maceta adds an hour to the walk and, despite being a bit steep, is well worth it; the view over Todos Santos Cuchumatán and the rocky formations around the Maya site of Las Cuevas is more than enough compensation for the extra effort.
