Naciones Unidas National Park (Amatitlán)

Researched (not yet visited in person)Last reviewed: not yet reviewed in person

The closest green getaway to the capital: lake and volcano views without leaving the department.

The department’s southern forest: pine trails, lookouts over Lake Amatitlán and Pacaya volcano, miniature replicas of Tikal and San Felipe Castle, plus picnic areas and canopy lines. About 40 minutes from the capital.
