    Great place into the city. It is very affordable Q10/person and Q10 for parking. For foreigners it's $5 (I don't understand why to charge more for tourists) It is close to the historical center and also de most prominent commercial areas.

    Easy 1.5 I'm hike. Fun bridges, but creeks are pretty nasty with sewer water. Great signs. Cost is 10 quetzals for adults and five quetzels for kids. There is a small playground at the end next to a soccer field.

    What a shame that a park which name includes the term ecological it have a river! of sewer waters openly running ~even a cascade of those toxic waters, my friends, so be careful. This disgraceful fact only confirms how the Guatemalan State and the Guatemala City government disrespects its own people, obviously the less economically favored, you can understand, who more than others uses this park, one of the few open spaces of easy access in the city to have a good walk by the nature. Avoid the downward trail to stay away from those filthy waters. Even so, and not having too more options, the place it's nice -despite the bad odors-; people is kind, you can unleash your dog -but have to be careful, because there are plenty of other dogs walking and the risk your pet run into the filthy waters- and the personal who work there are very attentive and respectful. That's why 2 stars. It could deserve a better qualification, but while the authorities doesn't care about the risks people and animals are exposed, you can't give the place a higher approval.

    Great place to chill with nature. It’s used a lot to photo shoots. And I think it’s only Q15 or Q25 the entrance.

    A really nice place to birding #birdwatching

  • 5/5 Jordi S. 2 years ago on Google • 4 reviews
    Great place to go for casual walks in nature as it has well maintained and wide trails in a small yet beautiful nature reserve that holds many stunning views and a diverse wildlife. As a plus, you can also eat and organize events in the installations at the entrance. The only downside is the eventual bad smell from the contaminated river that runs through the park. Highly recommended if you are in the area and want either a pleasant 40 minute walk or a good 90 minute hike depending on which trails you take

    Hermoso para llevar a sus peluditos a caminar bastante... Mejor si van entre semana... Y temprano. Abren a las 8.30am... de martes a domingo. Cobran Q15 x persona más Q15 por vehículo. Lleven churrasquera...

  • 4/5 Gabriela V. 3 years ago on Google
    Super agradable el parque para caminar o celebrar algo. No vi churrasquera ni sillas o chorros. Solo hay un baño bastante rústico el cual esta cerca de la entrada así que si decides adentrarte tendrás que ir en el carro o caminando un par de cuadras para utilizarlo. Hay tipo ranchitos y galeras por todo el parque los cuales están bien separados. Hay mucha área verde

    This is a awesome Ecological Park where you can make a lot of activities moke celebrate a birthday, wedding, church activities, family activities, etc. Also you can just go and walk around the place or bring food and make a picnic and have a peaceful time. The schedule is good for the time that the visitor may have and also the parking is big and the place so save.
