Highlights Along The Route

Point of Interest

Largely undeveloped and ringed by dense tropical forest, Lago de Yojoa is exceptionally scenic. Thanks to the indefatigable efforts of a local microbrewery owner to promote the region, the lake is now the most popular spot for breaking the journey between the Bay Islands and Nicaragua. Lago de Yojoa's birdlife is world-class: the latest species count is up to 485 – over half the total in Honduras – including the elusive quetzal. You can also hike to remote waterfalls and the summit of Santa Bárbara, visit coffee plantations, go tubing and zip lining or row on the lake itself. (As it's very shallow, with many reeds close to shore, swimming here is not great.) Peña Blanca is the main transportation hub near the lake; it's a bustling but uninteresting commercial town. Los Naranjos, an otherwise unremarkable village some way down a poorly maintained road, is where most travelers base themselves at D&D Brewery.
