Description: There are two thrilling
hikes through the rainforest leading to waterfalls. The trailheads start
after just a short drive from Hamanasi. The Antelope Falls hike is a rigorous,
steep trek to a 100-foot waterfall with an incredible view from on top
all the way to the ocean. The Three Sisters Falls hike is less difficult.
These falls hurtle down the dense jungle mountain face into cool pools
perfect for dipping. You can almost hear Mayan ancestors whispering in
the mist! Nearby are the remains of the ancient Mayan city of Mayflower.
Archaeologists are still excavating and piecing together the history of
this modest Mayan ruin, which is over grown by the jungle. Orchids, birds
and lush vegetation abound!
Please Note:
A Belizean tour guide accompanies all tours.
We cannot control the weather! It may rain for days and you
may experience the rainforest in the rain! Come prepared with adequate
rain gear and a positive attitude.
Trip alterations may occur due to inclement weather or factors
beyond our control.
Comfortable hiking shoes or sturdy tennis shoes are recommended
for most inland adventures. Open sandals are ideal for resort wear
and the beach.
We have a healthy environment and creatures great and small
thrive. We recommend that you use insect repellent and sunscreen during
all inland adventures.
The national parks of Belize encompass natural habitats for
wildlife such as tapir, jaguar, monkeys, snakes and crocodiles. Even
though all of the above animals have been seen by our guests, we cannot
guarantee that any specific wildlife will be spotted during your adventures.
Hamanasi is not liable for any injury sustained on a tour.
We promote low impact tourism and request that our guests
only walk on prepared trails in the jungle.
As visitors in beautiful Belize we ask that you respect and
are sensitive to the local culture. |
