Mountain Pine Rodge Forest Reserve 
Morning departure up the Western Highway to Mountain Pine Ridge where you will have a chance to see the natural beauty of this reserve. Bring along your walking shoes, your swimwear and an adventurous mind for full day of activity. Acres of citrus, scenic vistas, then a ranger
station welcomes you to the reserve. Hundreds of needle-like pine stretch heavenward as you rumble along red-tinted roads reminiscent of Georgia 's red clay. Amazing natural attractions lie ahead. Anticipation builds on the short walk to Rio Frio Cave . Your jaw may drop upon
first seeing the cave's 65-foot-high mouth. Eerie light spills over boulders and stalactites at the half-mile-long cave. Cool off in mini pools and soak up scenery at close by Rio On Pools, equally as impressive. An eye-boggling 1,000-foot splashdown can be found at Hidden Valley
Falls -also know as Thousand Foot Falls -in the Mountain Pine Ridge area. (road conditions permitting) Watch water disappear into the jungle from a mountain top viewing area. Bring along your binoculars, as there is much exotic flora and fauna to see in this tour, these species are endemic too this extremely rough, but beautiful part of Belize .
