For some years, Homún has been opening cenotes to which I have had the opportunity to get to know, such as the beautiful Cenote Hool Kosom. Homún is one of the populations that always surprises you.
Homun has dozens of cenotes, and they are beautiful. That makes it a very desirable population to visit, and in recent years it has been growing in services and opening more cenotes. The great thing is that they keep popular prices, something to be grateful for in this voracious world.
How to get to the cenotes of Homún, Complete guide where you have photos of the cenotes to choose better, prices and where to stay in the town.
How to go to cenote Hool Kosom
The beautiful Hool Kosom cenote with crystal clear waters is on the cenote route around Homún. On the east exit of the town you will find two detours to two groups of cenotes: some on the right hand side just leaving Homún (3 Oches, Oxolá, Yaxbacaltun) and others further away from the town on the left hand side.
The turnoff to Cenote Hool Kosom is found two kilometers past the town of Homún, it is the same dirt track that takes you to Chelpak, Bal-Mil, Chulul and Canunchén. You will see a sign on the road, it has no loss if you go attentive.
Cenote Hool Kosom
Cenote Hool Kosom (swallow hole) is a beautiful cavity that has conditioned to facilitate the entrance and enjoy its crystal clear waters. The entrances to these cenotes are indicated or marked by poplars, one of the trees that indicate the presence of a cenote. Its impressive roots cross the limestone rock to look for fresh water. In many cenotes we can admire the beauty and strength of the roots of the poplars, what precious things nature gives us.
The entrances to the cenotes accelerate my biorhythm, I like to go down slowly, savoring the emotions. Despite being a small cenote, the space is beautiful, and more with swallows, roots and the entrance of overhead light (we are late, better to visit this cenote from 11 to 15 hours to see it with the beam of light going through inside).
The services are rustic. A booth at the entrance where you get your ticket and you can buy some junk food botanita (that if patatitas, cookies and other forms of food with no nutritional value that both hook).
You have showers and changing rooms. The wooden platform does not break the charm of the place, something that is always appreciated. You will have space to leave your things and bathe in peace in one of the coldest waters of Homun.
A pleasure to always visit Homún and enjoy its cenotes. If you can, it's better to avoid Sundays because of the number of people who go these days. The charm of the cenotes has risen so much in recent years that it is difficult to visit them in solitude, we are already a large family of lovers of the cenotes. that we take care of them and continue enjoying.
