Day 1: The first day starts at 9:00 AM in Todos Santos. After meeting the guides, you'll continue on to San Nicolás, a small village in the Cuchumatanes Mountains. You'll hike in the direction of Pericon, which is about 2-hours away on foot.

Around lunch you'll make a short stop at the beautiful Aguacatan River. After another four-hour walk, you'll visit the village of Chortiz, where you can have something to eat and drink. The hike will then continue on to the place where you will stay for the night, a very small village in the Cuchumatanes Mountains. You have dinner and sleep in the local community here.

Day 2: On the second day, the hike starts at about 8:30 AM and heads in the direction of Chutuj, a village with only fifteen inhabitants.
