Guatemalan Back roads
Well like the title says, Im very interested in the Guatemalan back roads. In fact, Im OBSESSED with back/jungle roads anywhere. My post in the travel advisory section hasnt gotten any replies, so Ill kinda repost here. My friends and I are taking a trip through Mexico, into Belize. From Belize we will take my car (Toyota RAV4) on the ferry over to Punta Barrios and from there south into El Salvador. Im very curious about the back, dotted black lines (my map refers to them as "seasonal routes") that traverse Belize, Guatemala, and El Salvador. How safe are these roads??? We will be coming through in June so rainy season shouldnt be an issue just yet. I really want to explore some of these roads, but naturally Im nervous.
I take the people on this forum to be well traveled and you guys give sound advice. Also you tend to have a little more "cajonas" haha so I like that. Also Im curious about the camping. Im not into much of the "camper rv park camping" thing going on, but if I have to, I will do it. How safe it remote camping, beach, jungles etc? Im also not afraid to ask some friendly locals if we can hole up in their yards/pastures. Anyways, thanks in advance. I cant wait to be on the road!
