Horseback Riding Tour
The Copán valley
offers many options for horseback riding. The
most popular though is the trip to the hacienda
San Lucas, an adventurous ride parallel to the
Copán river, where not only we get to see
the abundant birds of the area but we also get
to see the farmland of Copán. The hacienda
San Lucas, offers a magnificent opportunity to
explore a typical honduran “finca”.
Nestled in the mountainsides
of the Copán valley, with magnificent views
of the valley, the town of Copán and the
jungle surrounding the archaeological park, San
Lucas has series of trails that have been developed
for us to enjoy,this trails include a combination
of archaeology (Los Sapos) and agriculture (coffee
and banana plantations, and nature: small creeks,
waterfalls, and lovely pine, cedar and oak forests
surround the finca). Let’s make sure we
take good hiking shoes and keep an eye out for
a variety of birds that like to hang out near
the Copán river late in the afternoon.
