Ancient Maya place heavy importance on caves and it is unmistakably apparent in the hundreds of caves found in the Cayo District of Belize.  There are numerous caves near Mountain Equestrian Trails for you to explore and some are still being documented and cataloged by archeologists today.  Upon entering a cave you begin to notice, not only magnificent formations and vast open chambers, but also ancient pottery, evidence of human remains and ancient habitation.  These cave systems were believed to be the homes and source of many of there gods.

Barton Creek Cave - Close enough to ride there by horseback or take a short ride in our van.  It is a river cave where you can paddle a canoe for about a mile inside.  Included are a guide, spotlight, and 3 person canoe.  Once inside you will see cave wildlife, unusual limestone formations and even a human skull left by the Maya.  Just outside of the cave is the famous Barton Creek Outpost, which always has interesting characters to meet and an awesome beach for swimming.  A Must See!

Offering Cave/Skeleton Cave - Is a hidden treasure and a unique experience.  We take you on an overnight horseback ride to a hidden cave containing many large intact pots and full skeletons.  This once in a lifetime excursion includes a stop at Sapodilla Falls, a remote jungle waterfall with breathtaking views, swimming and rock climbing.
