Please note:
There is approximately 2 miles on a well-maintained forest trail, with the first mile presenting a moderate incline that ascends roughly 500 feet in elevation. As you make your way back down during the second mile, prepare for steeper terrain that requires careful footing. The entire trail excursion lasts about one hour and includes several rest stops to ensure everyone can enjoy the experience at their own pace. Please note that trail widths vary between 3 feet and 1 foot, making this tour unsuitable for wheelchairs. For your comfort and safety, we recommend wearing sturdy closed-toe walking shoes and long pants, as well as applying mosquito repellent. A wide-brimmed hat will provide essential shade, and reef-safe sunscreen is encouraged to protect your skin. While we do provide water, it’s always a good idea to bring your water bottle. For added support, walking sticks and ponchos will be available if there’s light rain, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the forest!
