| Description: |
Guanacaste National Park (GNP) is a 50 acres protected area located roughly in the center of Belize, It is just north of the capital city Belmopan in the Northeast quadrant of the Cayo District. GNP was established as a Crown Reserve in 1973 and gained National Park Status in 1990.
This 50 acre national park is a segment of protected secondary growth tropical forest. It is the most accessible of the Belize Audubon Society managed protected areas, located less than 2 miles from the capital city Belmopan at the intersection of the Hummingbird and Western Highways this makes the park easily accessed by private vehicles and bus. Here the whole family has the opportunity to experience the beauty of Belize's world-renowned biodiversity only minutes from an urban setting. The proximity of the park to Belize's major towns and cities makes it the perfect destination for an unforgettable day trip.
The park's relatively small size allows our visitors to come face to face with the varied wildlife and lush vegetations at an amazingly short distance from the entrance from the entrance gates. To enhance your enjoyment, the park boast an education center with a gift shop, a beautifully, wooden observation deck overlooking the river, a refreshing swimming spot for any age and swimming experience. We also have to offer sheltered picnic areas and over 2 miles of maintained trails. |
