Welcome to our website, the Mayan Q'eqchi Community of Saquijá Cahabón, Alta Verapaz is excited to offer you an unparalleled adventure on the Cahabón River. An awesome blend of mystic Mayan Culture and Pure Adrenaline is what the experience here is all about.

To get to Saquija from Coban, you can eithe drive or find public transportation to Lanquín. The ride itself is enjoyable with its beautiful topography and the lush greenery of Alta Verapaz.

From Lanquin, head towards Cahabón and at about 12 km you will find "carretera ecológica" on your right this is the entrance to Saquija. Our office is located right in the center of town, across the street from a group of cabanas.

Upon arrival a friendly member of ADETES will be there to greet you and explain your rafting options. The first option is for rafters of all experience levels. A 12 km course that offers class III and IV rapids. The second option is for the more adventurous and experienced. A 19 km course of raging white water complete with several class V rapids.

In addition to rafting, we invite you to stay in one of our cozy cabanas and enjoy a typical Mayan meal at our comedor.

Rafting here is available 7 days a week all year long. However, we recommend contacting us to reserve your trip before arriving. We hope to see you soon!
