Trekking in the Lacandon Jungle

After picking you up at your hotel in Palenque, we will head towards the Lacanja Chansayab indigenous community. The minibus journey will take about three hours, with a stop for breakfast.

Upon arrival, we will start a hiking route through the Lacandon jungle.

During the 4-hour hike, you will see ferns, orchids, and bromeliads. A Lacandon guide will provide insights about various plants and, if lucky, you may spot howler monkeys, macaws, or harpy eagles. The jungle is also home to jaguars, so stay alert!

On the return to Lacanja Chansayab, you will have an hour for lunch before heading back to Palenque. We will conclude the experience by returning to the hotels 14 hours after the pickup time.
