Ten miles off Chiquibul Rd, the Thousand Foot Falls are reckoned to be the highest in Central America, a ribbon of water cascading down a mountainside that you can view from a distant lookout point. Access them by turning onto Cooma Cairn Rd (follow the Hidden Valley sign), then turn left after 7 miles at the '1000 Ft Falls' sign. Walk around the lookout area for views over the pine-covered valley out toward Belmopan.
Now managed under Belize Karst Habitat Conservation as a Natural Monument (protected area) and change in fees: BZ$2 for residents, BZ$5 for non-residents. Its Conservation Champion ticket is BZ$10. Newly accessible under new management with renovated sheds, bathrooms, and more; visitor center and cafe under construction.
