Nov. 7-10

San Antonio, Lake Atitlan

From the airport in Guatemala City we will travel to Lake Atitlan and spend 4 nights here on one of the deepest lakes in the world, a place considered by Mayan creation myth to be the birthplace of the Universe! Atitlan, “the most beautiful lake in the world”, was formed 11 million years ago and is a crater lake surrounded by 3 other towering volcanoes. It is one of the deepest lakes in the world. Surrounded by native Kaqchiquel and Tzutujil villages, Atitlan is both a cultural and geological treasure.

We will travel across the lake with Guatemala Sur Mesure to San Juan La Laguna and visit a women's weaving coop. It's a special opportunity to see how Mayan women create vibrant textiles from spinning the cotton to dyeing to weaving on hand crafted looms.

Nov. 11-14

Molino Helvetia - Tecpan, Guatemala

From Atitlan we will travel to Tecpan and spend 3 nights at this historic wheat mill in the Highlands, at 7400 ft. above sea level. The property was a functioning wheat mill for over 80 years and boasts over 500 acres of old growth cyprus, pine, and eucalyptus forest. There's a nicely developed trail system for hiking and biking. About 10 years ago the property was converted to a museum and eco-tourism operation. Molino Helvetia means "Swiss Mill" as it was originally built and operated by Swiss immigrants. It is truly enchanting!
