This road better known as "El Guayacan" was finally finish,and boy,those of us that used to travel to Jinotega to get to Apanas,are sure excited about this new road.
First the Road from Sebaco- Matagalpa was done,which was a relieve as well,before it used to take me 4 hours to get from Esteli-Jinotega,now it takes less than 2 hours

.

Thanks to the new road,One does not have to go through Matagalpa,and up that shitti road,which I believe it has about 253 curbes

, instead,take the new road,which is about 20 mins from Sebaco,it will be on your left hand side,you can't miss it .
Here is a few pics from La Prensa on what the road looks like.

Is that telephoto distortion, or will you need low gear in a 4x4 to go up that hill?

if they can maintain that road and keep the lunatic bus drivers a little bit calmed down, theres some potential Longboarding tourism here

nop, is very hilly,but,no need for 4x4

,it's a very scenic road,more scenic when the rains come

.
thou it has a lot of curves,they are not as many as the Matagalpa-Jinotega road.
I wonder if it will get misty,as it does towards the peak of the Jinotega road, even thou I doubt it,since it does not appear to be as elevated as the Jinotega road.
