El Salvador border crossing

Can`t remember the name but there is a border crossing from Guatemala to the north of El Savador on the CA13. Has anyone any information about it? Is it open on Sundays and is it a difficult crossing?

Thanks

Don't know the top one, but if the central one is of any use to you I know it's open on Sundays. There's not much driving distance between the two. Blackbeast has a fantastic point-by-point of that one posted up here if it's any use to you....

I did the bottom one, close to the coast, and although it took a bit of time, as there was plenty of trucks, I had no problems whatsoever.
Hope it helps somewhat.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive.
