Black Rock Lodge's stunning rainforest surroundings offer abundant opportunity for exploration and adventure. Whether canoeing down the pristine Macal River, horseback riding to the Flour Camp caves, or hiking up the various Canyon trails, the abundant diversity of the local flora and fauna is inspiring.

Over 200 species of birds are possible to sight on Black Rock’s property and the Lodge is one of the rare places in Central America where you can observe all three species of Toucan in one morning. In addition, the thrill of spotting either the Orange Breasted Falcon or the White Hawk soaring above the Canyon along with the auditory delight of tracking the distinct call of the Slaty-Tailed Trogon add to the excitement of visiting Black Rock.

Black Rock Lodge's passionate commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable operation is evident in every aspect of your stay with us.

The electricity for our beautifully situated, riverfront cabins is supplied by a custom hybrid system consisting of micro-hydro and solar power and we practice energy conservation throughout the Lodge. 100% of our water use is supplied by a nearby mountain spring and the Lodge is able to reduce water use through the installation of water conserving appliances. In addition, the wastewater from our staff quarters is processed through a "constructed wetland" which uses plants and aerobic activity to more completely clean the water. Our knowledgeable and helpful staff come from the surrounding communities of San Ignacio, Bullet Tree, and Santa Elena. We complement our delicious restaurant fare with fresh, organic fruits grown on site and use the compost from our restaurant to fertilize the garden.
