What to expect

Our rafting in the Lacandona Jungle is, without a doubt, the most scenic in the entire country. It is difficult not to marvel at the huge ceiba trees and trees over 40 meters high, which protrude from the banks of the Lacanjá River. Also, if you are lucky, you will spot some jungle animals.

The first part of the river is a sequence of waterfalls that lasts about an hour. There are small waterfalls (less than one meter) and some large ones (up to 2.50 meters high). Later we paddle another hour until we reach the archaeological site of Lacanjá, which is 15 min away. from the river bank walking through the jungle. Then we visit the Moctuniha waterfalls where we will swim and have a snack. We return to the camp walking through the dense foliage of the high evergreen jungle.
