Horseback Riding
What better way to get around than astride one of our trusty steeds? Just kidding! They aren't really steeds, however our horses are sure-footed and anyone from beginners to experts will enjoy a leisurely ride. We recommend that you try to get in at least one good ride before leaving Belize, because there is really no better way to enjoy the Cayo country-side.
Ride Around the Lodge
Ride horseback around Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge. This is a great way to see whether horseback riding is for you. Check out some of the beautiful plants and enjoy a leisurely horseback ride.
Two Hours
Nature Ride
Horseback ride through the lush jungles of Cayo, through pastures and parries, and up the highest hilltop to a special lookout called Valley View, which has beautiful vistas of all of Cayo and even part of Guatemala. You'll get a chance to take photos and enjoy the breathtaking views before heading back down the hill to the lodge. Take the ride at your leisure with opportunities to trot or gallop.
