For over 20 years, the Tacaná volcano, meaning "House of Fire" in the Mam language, has been declared a Natural Reserve by Mexico's National Commission of Natural Protected Areas (CONANP). The coffee-growing communities that inhabit the area have focused their efforts and commitments on biodiversity conservation in this iconic volcano of the Southern Border region.


Tacaná is an active volcano, 4,070 meters above sea level, located on the border of Mexico and Guatemala. It shares territory with its neighbor, the Tajumulco volcano. The cloud forest, tropical pine-oak forests, and high-altitude grasslands give the volcano extraordinary scenic beauty. It is one of the areas with the greatest biodiversity in the country; its forests are home to 12 endangered bird species, including the resplendent quetzal, as well as other species such as the giant anteater and the ocelot.
