Natural Highs
With not even 2% of its landmass urbanized, it's not surprising that Guatemala offers
some superb natural scenery. National parks are few but impressive, particularly in the
Petén region and the lush canyons of the Río Dulce make for an unforgettable boat ride.
The natural beauty of the volcano-ringed Lago de Atitlán has been captivating travelers
for centuries, while the swimming hole that launched a thousand postcards, Semuc
Champey, has to be seen to be believed.
