The
valley of Copán and the surrounding mountains provide a stunning variety
of activities to suit every taste.

 | Chonco:
A great mixture of culture and nature.

minutes of hiking brings us to the mouth of the cave through which runs a river.

by the Mayans as a secret passage to the underground. 5 hour excursion. Tour includes
