Jaibalito to Santa Cruz la Laguna Trail, Guatemala

The footpath between Jaibalito and Santa Cruz la Laguna runs along the steep shoreline above Lake Atitlán in Sololá Department, Guatemala. This route links lakeside communities that are often reached by boat or on foot, making hillside trails an important part of daily transportation. The dry-stacked stone retaining wall supports the narrow path where it cuts into the slope, a practical construction method widely used on the lake’s rugged terrain.
