Cenote Chac Zinic Che

The cenote reaches a depth of 27 meters and features a semi-open cavern structure with an Álamo tree at its entrance whose roots extend into the water.

The railway tracks leading to the cenote were originally constructed for henequen plantation workers who transported their agricultural products through the region.

The ancient Maya people considered cenotes as sacred portals to communicate with their deities and used these natural formations as water sources.

Visitors access the cenote through metal stairs leading to a platform, where they can store belongings before entering the water for swimming.

The cenote forms part of Los 3 Cenotes de Cuzamá, accessed by a traditional horse-drawn cart journey spanning 10 kilometers through Mexican jungle terrain.
