Balam Trail Ride
The Balam Trail Ride is a fun guided mountain bike tour through the forest trails surrounding the ancient Maya city of Tayasal. The ride combines flowing jungle trails with short stops at viewpoints and several Maya structures that can be seen along the route.
The route is adapted to the group, making each ride slightly different. Along the way it’s common to hear howler monkeys in the trees and spot colorful birds in the forest canopy while enjoying a relaxed ride through the natural landscape.
