Black Rock Lodge's stunning rainforest surroundings offer abundant opportunity for exploration and adventure. Whether canoeing down the pristine Macal River, horseback riding to the Flour Camp caves, or hiking up the various Canyon trails, the abundant diversity of the local flora and fauna is inspiring.
Black Rock is home to over 200 species of birds and is one of the rare places in Central America where you can observe all three species of Toucan in one morning. In addition, the thrill of spotting either the Orange Breasted Falcon or the White Hawk soaring above the Canyon along with the auditory delight of tracking the distinct call of the Slaty-Tailed Trogon add to the excitement of awakening at Black Rock.
Black Rock Lodge's passionate commitment to environmental stewardship is evident in every aspect of your stay with us.
The electricity for our beautifully situated, riverfront cabins is supplied by a custom hybrid of hydro and solar power. Our knowledgeable and helpful staff come from the surrounding communities of San Ignacio, Bullet Tree, and Melchor. We complement our delicious restaurant fare with fresh, organic fruits grown on site. And 100% of our water use is supplied by a nearby mountain spring, active year-round.
With so many activities available to our guests, Black Rock is the perfect place to spend your Belize vacation.
For example, early one morning you may decide to hike to the peak of the challenging Summit Trail to catch a glimpse of the sun as it rises over the Mountain Pine Ridge. On your way back down the trail you'll spot many of the 200+ species of birds which call this area home. That afternoon you might choose to take it easy and cool off on a leisurely tube ride down the river - admiring the giant Garobo Iguanas along the way.
Another day, you may opt to pack one of our special picnic lunches into your saddlebag and explore the unexcavated Mayan ruin of Tipu, a 1.5 hour horseback ride from the Lodge. Stopping by Flour Camp Cave on the way back to the Lodge you can investigate centuries old Mayan potshards and artifacts with helpful historical knowledge from one of our superb guides. After a nap and a delicious dinner you might want to join the Night Hike and catch glimpse of all sorts of creatures with your night vision goggles, learning about the rainforest and its inhabitants from one of our experienced guides.
The opportunities for exploration and adventure are endless and completely up to you. As with all of Black Rock's staff, our guides are here to assist you to help make your stay with us as fun and enjoyable as possible.
