2-day Multi-sport adventure in the Lacandon Jungle in Chiapas

The Lacandon Jungle is one of Mexico’s most intriguing places. It is home of lacandon mayans that still inhabit this wonderful rainforest, along with many endemic species.

Also known as the Desert of Solitude, it stretches from the state of Chiapas in Mexico to Honduras, covering part of the Yucatán Peninsula. Its heart lies at the Montes Azules Biosphere Reserve in Chiapas, bordering Guatemala. Despite the damage it has suffered over the years, it remains as the largest montane rainforest in North America. 

Furthermore, not only it is home of many endangered and majestic species such as the jaguar, it also hosts many important Mayan archaeological ruins. Some of the most important ones are Palenque, Yaxchilan and Bonampak. But, we should keep our eyes open as there are still smaller sites partially or completely unexcavated. So you’ll feel like a true explorer wondering in the unknown, discovering sites that perhaps had never seen before.

Two days might not seem enough to explore this paradise. However, one of our expert guides will take you to its most important sites. For instance, you’ll get the chance to navigate at Río Lacajá (class III- rafting). Also, you’ll hike through the Ciudad Perdida, or Lost City, along with Bonampak, famous mayan archaeological sites, and visit the Ocosingo community. You’ll be able to see and refresh at the Corcho Negro waterfalls. And you’ll live an unforgettable night, camping under a dazzling bed of stars and surrounded by the relaxing sounds of the jungle.
