Echoes from the Highlands | Guatemala Short Documentary

Join us on a profound journey through the Guatemalan highlands, where history, culture, and resilience converge. In "Echoes from the Highlands," we venture beyond the iconic volcanoes and bustling cities to uncover the heart of Guatemala. Guided by Quetzaltrekkers, a volunteer-led organization dedicated to sustainable travel, we embarked on a four-day trek through remote villages, each step bringing us closer to understanding Guatemala's turbulent past and enduring spirit. From the vibrant celebrations in Nebaj to the serene peaks of La Torre, our hike revealed the deep scars left by decades of conflict and the incredible strength of the Maya people. Witness the stories of survival and resilience from locals who have lived through Guatemala's darkest times. Learn how sustainable tourism can make a positive impact on the communities we visit, supporting local projects and fostering a deeper connection to the land and its people. Experience the true essence of Guatemala: its history, its people, and its unwavering spirit. 🔗 For sustainable and educational treks through Guatemala’s western highlands, visit www.quetzaltrekkers.com/xela.
