The nose has the name, because from the distance of the lake, the topography of the mountains is like a face.

The sunrise with the lake is beautiful. To go up, I recommend the walk to Santa Maria. => Early

Hiking

The view is fantastic and the path from Santa Clara to the viewpoint is easy to walk.
But it is also worth going a little further up - to the next higher vantage point from which you can look down on it. I also suspect that there is usually an entrance fee, but I came from the other direction - from the higher vantage point - and was there very late on a Sunday.

Hiking

Indian Nose is the mountain with the distinctive profile of a sleeping Mayan chief. The best (and also safest!) way to get here is to book a tour. The shuttle bus leaves at 4 a.m. in the morning. Then you hike with a guide for 30 minutes to the tip of the nose (bring a headlamp with you). At the top you can watch the sun rise over a small breakfast and then it's back down. You are back at 7.30 a.m. Costs about 100 quetzales.
