UPDATE FROM THE HEART OF THE CENTRAL AMERICAN JUNGLE

We have just received the sat. phone update from the Leader that all is really well, 2 days into their 7 day trek through unchartered Belizean jungle of the Chiquibul Forest. The group are all doing fine and enjoying the fact they have their rucksacks and supplies on their back again and are trekking through some amazing forest, seeing some incredible rainforest sites. Living and breathing the jungle again. A typical Trekforce experience, like no other !


They have reached the cave that is the largest in the wetsern hemisphere and they are en route and on track to a site that very few have seen. Location secret, photo below.........our Belizean guides are amazing and the team are really looking forward to pioneering a new route through the jungle.



They are on target to reach Caracol on the 08th when they will receive a well deserved slap up meal and a few cold Belikins...........

The project itself was an amazing success, the dedicated Trekforce Worldwide team completed all the Palapas and other projects asked of them to make Elijio Panti National Park and its archealogical heritage a great example of managed and protected biodiversity.
