Semuc Champey (Monumento Natural Semuc
Champey), is a natural park in the center of Guatemala. Semuc Champey is
a 4 kilometers
drive from the town of Lankin which is suitable
mainly for four-wheel-drive vehicles. The park main attraction is made
out of a natural bridge of limestone (about 300 meters in length). Río
Cahabón (Cahabón River) runs above and underneath it. The bridge itself
created a spectacular series of waterfalls where water flows yearlong
into clear emerald pools. Semuc Champey is a popular swimming
attraction. The tropical rain forest enclosing the river is a habitat to
more than 100 species of birds and other dozens of species of mammals
and reptiles. Entrance is 50 quetzal (about 6.5$ USD) without the guided
tour.
