About Concepción de Ataco

Concepción de Ataco is a municipality in the Ahuachapán department located along the Ruta de las Flores, at an altitude of 1,260 meters above sea level. The town center retains cobblestone streets and adobe buildings, several of which are adorned with large-format murals. The aroma of roasted coffee fills the air as you enter the town on Saturday mornings. The main activity is the cultivation and processing of high-altitude coffee, complemented by textile production on handlooms, which is sold in the workshops in the town center. On weekends, food and craft fairs take place in the central park, featuring stalls with traditional food and local products.
