Introducing Lago de Yojoa

Honduras’ largest natural lake and surely its most beautiful, Lago de Yojoa (89 sq km) is slowly emerging as a new tourism nexus in Honduras. It has long been a favorite among bird-watchers, who have recorded over 375 species around the lake. The lake is also a good base for exploring two national parks: Cerro Azul Meámbar, with well-marked, moderately challenging trails, and Santa Bárbara, with the country’s second-highest peak and an adventurous two-day hike to the summit. A number of easy day trips are also possible, including boat rides on the lake, a Lenca eco-archaeological site, and the impressive Pulhapanzak Falls.
