Mountain Pine Ridge Tour

Special Tour

MOUNTAIN PINE RIDGE FOREST RESERVE (Full day tour) – Located in the highlands of the southern zone of western Belize, the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve offers cool streams and reveals splendid natural monuments. This nature reserve’s expanse is an impressive 300 square miles and is pine-tree dominated, a fact that may surprise many visitors since it is a stark contrast to the rest of the tropical country.

Here you will find a scenic combination of cool pine forests, tumbling streams, lush river valleys, caves and waterfalls. The most popular of the waterfalls is Big Rock Waterfalls, the Rio Frio Cave is one of the largest caves in Belize and the Rio On pools are a must for an afternoon swim before heading out of the reserve.

Sinkholes and caves are common in these limestone areas. The Macal River forms the boundaries of the reserve to the west and south and is fed by tributaries including Rio Frio, Rio On, Privassion Creek and Pinol Creek. Your guided tour will be followed by a delicious traditional Belizean lunch consisting of Rice & Beans, Stewed Chicken, Fried Plantains and Salad. Water and Sodas will be provided. Special diets or preferences can be adhered to.
