Ocotepeque

Ocotepeque is a town and municipality in the Honduran department of Ocotepeque.

Located 15 miles from the Honduran–Salvadoran border as well as the Honduran–Guatemalan border, Ocotepeque is one of the first municipalities encountered when traveling between the countries. One area of interest near the town is the Trifinio biosphere reserve, a nature preserve shared among Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador.

The city of Esquipulas, Guatemala is near Ocotepeque and is home to what many consider to be the most sacred shrine in Central America.
