Solola

The terrain of Sololá ranges from the volcanic shores of Lake Atitlán in the south to cool, elevated highlands in the north, creating marked differences in climate and settlement. Lake Atitlán, watched over by the Atitlán, Tolimán and San Pedro volcanoes, is the department’s defining feature; Panajachel, Santiago Atitlán and San Juan La Laguna stand along its shore. Sololá belongs to Guatemala’s Maya highlands, where Kaqchikel and Tz’utujil communities sustain Indigenous languages, textile traditions and market trade. The town of Sololá is the departmental capital and is known for its market and traditional Maya dress. Browse additional webcams from around Lake Atitlán to extend your view of Sololá.
