Semuc Champey

Semuc Champey is located in Alta Verapaz. Semuc Champey is a Q`eqchi name which means “Where the river that hides under the ground”. It is a valley surrounded by a forest, and has steep walls. There’s a bridge, on top of which there are some natural different sized “pools”, filled with fresh and crystalline water. Underneath the bridge is the Cahabón River. At the end of the bridge, the water from the pools falls rejoining the river, forming a waterfall.
