We visit the Cayo and Mountain Pine Ridge Districts of Belize, exploring Maya sites and caves and a variety of jungle lodges. Who knew that you could find a horse ranch in Belize? We ride some of the 100 horses at Banana Bank Lodge, a farm and ranch near the capitol city of Belmopan, with former Montana resident John Carr. Next we take on the jungle with Albert Garbutt, who points out medicinal plants that Belizeans use to treat everything from diabetes to sunburns. We climb high at the ancient Maya city of Xunantunich, near the border of Guatemala, before exploring Rio Frio Cave, where the Maya scarified everything from precious stones to humans. Blancaneaux Lodge, owned by famous director, Francis Ford Coppola, welcomes guests to experience an eco-friendly, self-sustaining resort in the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve. At Blancaneaux, fruits and vegetables are grown in an organic garden, the Privassion River provides hydroelectric power to the resort and horses are born and raised. We take a ride to Big Rock Falls, where we escape the heat of the jungle by taking a dip under a cool waterfall. At Mountain Equestrian Trails, we ride into the jungle to a wide field of wildflowers, great for riding fast on horseback, and a small, secret waterfall. At night, we fall asleep to the sounds of nature in our eco-friendly jungle cabana.
