The Maya Mountains and Jungle Reserves

Almost 30% of Belize is protected by national park status. The result is a country swathed in immaculate jungles and rugged mountain ranges clad in forests and river canyons. From the Pine Ridge Mountain Reserve in the South to the Orange Walk District in the North, inland Belize offers a fascinating contrast of habitats, culture and adventure. Some of our favourite experiences are in the Mountain Pine Ridge Reserve. Here you will discover Mayan temples that pierce the forest canopy and underground river systems that lead to dramatic gorges patrolled by hundreds of species of birdlife. Mountain bikes, canoes, hiking trails and horseriding are just some of the ways to explore inland Belize.
