Guatemala is the country of Central America with the most contrasts. The Sierra of the Cuchumatanes, in western Guatemala - is the highest moutain range in Central America. It is a region of vast proportions, sometimes austere, with a mainly indigenous population. The variations of the altitude in this tropical region result in a large variation of climates and ecosystems. Unknown by conventional turism, it is one of the regions of Guatemala with the most character and beauty, which is largely only accesible by horse or foot.
