Description

Montebello Lagoon, a former Hacienda, Tepancuapan property was finally protected in 1959, as declared. Spectacular beauty, one of the most beautiful natural places of all the country, framed in dense pines, oak and mixed forest and attractive orchids and bromelias; there is also those named uvalas, lakes from ancient cenotes derived from corrosion of limestone and eroded for a long time. It is not so certain, they could be 56 lakes, famous for the water colors, changed due to the deepness and refraction light. There are ways to the park, at Esmeralda lake, La Encantada, Bosque Azul, Ensueño and Agua Tinta; all of them surrounded by pine forest.

Near them there some services and the possibility of an expedition to San Rafael, a natural arch 40 meters high, over a deep hole, where a small flow is submerged, known as Paso del Soldado.

The other ways take to Montebello Lagoon, Cañada, Pojoj, Tziscao and Dos Lagunas; Tziscao is one of the greatest lake, with 45 meters deep; it is on Guatemala's border. Near the park is Yuria ranch property of Poet, Jaime Sabines. The place's beauty inspired Dr. Atl to propose Olinca, the City of Arts.
