Something not right?
Description
Beautiful road leading up to this point then turns into dirt road going to a river crossing. It was shallow and no issue for our Ford Transit. Regular cars passed as well. Not sure if an RV would be able to make it though since going in and out the river bed is pretty steep and rocky...
Edit: Approach angle and exit angle are fine for vehicles of all sizes. A bus crossed in front of us and we are 22 feet long and went through fine.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Crossed here twice with a 2WD VW Crafter Van 6m long and were totally fine :) only the parts before and after were a little bumpy but manageble. So I guess it is ok in dry season for most of vehicles.
Rest of all the road is paved and in good conditions. Just 1-2 parts are a bit steep, but really manageble in first gear :)

Report Check-InLow tide. With bicycle Just get wet your feet .. with Motorbike dont have to jump off (What i see From locals). Btw The scenery along this road is really beautiful !!
Report Check-InCrossed today. As stated, the road leading to and from this bridge washout is brand new asphalt. I highly recommend leaving or going to Lago Atitlan vía this route to Antigua. The river is very shallow and a small bus drive across right in front of us. The angle into and out of the shallow flow is no problem. I have no idea what this would look like in heavy rain, but might be quite different. Not sure. Dirt section of the road here is very, very short.
Report Check-InStill no bridge, but any car can cross. It's just 10 cm deep and solid/hard gravel underneath.
Report Check-InI’m surprised this still hasn’t been bridged yet, although there were some men digging around so maybe in the future. I was travelling by bicycle and the crossing was absolutely disgusting- river smelled strongly of sewage and there was so much trash floating down. Muddy bottom not gravel.
Report Check-InEasy crossing in our Chevy van, still like a creek. Not deep at all as of today!
Report Check-Inis a very shallow 10 metres creek crossing, easily doable with any car, road after that in great condition
Report Check-InJust a short stretch of Dirtroad here. More of a creek or steam than an river. Easy doable with our 2015 Sprinter. The rest of the road is paved.
Report Check-InBeautiful road to take from Lake Attiltan to Antiqua or the other way around. River crossing is still there, no bridge build. Easy for any motorcycle and enjoy all the curves on this pretty quiet road :)
