The purchase of the Lotts is an ideal opportunity as either an investment, for an ecological community or tourism project, to cultivate cocoa, cardamom, or reforestation of hard woods and Copal. All 3 Lotts contain some high quality clay ideal for various uses including adobe construction. Tourism is at the start of a boom in the Lanquin area due to the attractions of Semuc Champey (only 10k.m away), which many see as the most beautiful spot in Guatemala, and Lanquin’s many caves and rivers which offer the visitor great opportunities for adventure in activities such as Spelunking, kayaking and white water rafting, Hiking, Tubing, and bird and nature watching. Being only 1.5 hours from Coban, the capital of the Alta Verapaz region accessibility by land and availability of products and services from out side of Lanquin is straightforward. There is a very high quality new road that arrives to within 10k.m of Lanquin from Coban and plans to construct such a road all the way to both Lanquin and Semuc Champey. Tourism facilities such as Zephyr lodge, El Retiro and El Portal are very popular destinations for independent travelers and are often full. Lanquin lacks services of many types including higher scale accommodation, which offer a great opportunity for investors in such services.
Lanquin is situated at just over 300m above sea level, and has a tropical climate with the majority of days being sunny, and some rainfall all year round, making for a very lush area ideal for farming and for those interested in sustainable energy and building. The source of the River Lanquin comes from the Lanquin Caves, only a few kilometers up stream from the lotts. The caves regulate the river flow, so during times of heavy rain, including hurricanes the river land does not flood.
The lott sizes will vary slightly depending on the exact borders desired by the buyer and the area measured by the topographer. The buyer will have options to enlarge or reduce the area slightly depending on needs and budget. We have calculated the areas of the 3 lotts using an engineer and priced the land accordingly. The price of the land will of course vary also depending on the exact area of land measured.
