Near Puerto Barrios, the "Las Escobas" nature reserve supplies much of the towns of Puerto Barrios and Santo Tomás, as well as many surrounding communities. To better understand the importance of protecting our natural environment and this unique biodiversity, interpretive paths have been marked in the heart of the tropical rainforest. It is only 1 hour to travel, but much more if you take the time to observe nature and if you stop to cool down in one of the natural pools in which there are lots of cascades. This reserve, administered by the NGO Fundaeco, also aims at environmental education. Future guides, some of which have already been trained, can accompany you during your visit. This will prevent the day before Fundaeco from your arrival (www.fundaeco.org.gt). Open every day from 8 a. m. to 17 p. m., the site is easy to access, either by bus from Santo Tomás market or by taxi (count 15 to 20 US $ if you want it to wait 2 hours). The entrance is US $ 8. Beware, you will fall on a huge billboard Femsa Gallo. Do not confuse this recreational area with the entrance of the reserve that will be further on your left.
