"If you’re impressed by the jungles and rivers surrounding San Ignacio, you’ll be in awe of the contrasting landscapes as you head south from town. Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve, awide-open expanse of jungle, rocks, waterfalls, and caves, is reached by a dirt road lined withtowering pine trees. Staying in a remote lodge in the reserve area is asromantic as it gets, but even a day trip has its rewards. Take a dip in fresh water after hiking to uncrowded waterfalls like Big Rock, or swim at Rio on Pools, a swimming hole fed by cool, cascading waters. This reserve is one of Belize 's grandest wild landscapes."
