profundamente maravillados


Explanation:
El significado de ambas palabras es bastante similar:
awestruck:filled with feelings of admiration or respect
wonder: a feeling of great surprise and admiration
Por lo que quizás se pueda utilizar una palabra que intensifique el sentido.

"Cada pendiente que se salva llega hasta las márgenes del río Lajajalpan, que ya ha perdido su caudal original, su pureza, pero aun así, es posible quedar profundamente maravillado ante el espectáculo que se ofrece paz y serenidad y que sólo es posible en esta parte de la agreste barranca de los Jilgueros."
