Geocache Description:

A short hike from Panajachel that gets you away from the markets and diesel fumes where you can enjoy a view of lake Atitlan, and the three volcanoes, San Pedro, Atitlan and Toliman.

This cache is located in the dry hills just outside Panajachel. The trailhead I used was outside of town under a roadway sign at N14 44.648 W91 09.776. Initially the trail is not very well defined but after a short distance you will encounter a well worn trail that will lead you up a ridge. Follow this trail to the cache. I did not have time to follow the well defined trail to the bottom of the hill to see where it began. Please bring a pen to sign the log. There are a couple trinkets from the market in the cache. You might want to seek this with a friend for your own safety.

Small note on cache maintenance: I have been visiting the region from Antiqua to Nebaj to Panajachel each year for three years now. I will be able to check on each of my Guatemalan caches once or twice a year for at least the next 2 to 3 years.
