I ka waenakonu o 2000, ua hoʻolaʻa ʻia ke ala nui hema-hikina ma Chiapas, kūlike a kokoke loa i ka palena ʻo Mexico-Guatemala. Hoʻomaka ia ma Palenque a hoʻopau i nā loko o Montebello; he 422 km lākou, ʻo ka hapa nui o ia ma o ka Hōʻailona Lacandon.
Ma hope o ka 50 km mua, holo ke ala kokoke i ka muliwai Usumacinta, a hiki i kēlā kihi mamao o ka Repubalika ʻo Mekiko ʻo ia ka wahi ʻo Marqués de Comillas. Hele ia i 250 km i ka hema hikina a hiki i kona piko ma ke kaona ʻo Flor de Cacao, ma laila e huli komohana a piʻi i Montebello; hoʻopuni ke ala hou i ka Reserve Reserve Montes Azules.
Ke wili nei nā 50 km mua o ka huakaʻi aʻo ka 50 hope loa aku. ʻO ka ʻāpana waena i hana ʻia me nā laina pau ʻole. Ma muli o nā wahi kaha he nui, mai ke Kākau ʻlelo o ka Navy ma ka mua (ma kahi kokoke o ka muliwai Usumacinta) a me ka pūʻali koa Mekiko ma hope, palekana loa ke ala. E pili ana i ka wahie, aia nā wahi ʻenekini a me nā wahi i waho o nā kauhale i nā kaona like ʻole. Akā e hele i nā ʻāpana.
ʻO Palenque, no nā makahiki he nui, ua loaʻa nā kamaʻilio ʻāina maikaʻi. 8 km mai laila aku, ma ke ala e hele ai i Agua Azul a me Ocosingo, hoʻomaka ke ala palena i ka hema. Ma km 122 e loaʻa iā ʻoe ka San Javier ranchería, ma hea ʻoe e huli ʻākau a me 4 km e loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi "Y": ma ka ʻākau, 5 km ka mamao o ke kaona nui ʻo Lacandón, Lacanjá, a ma ka hema ka ʻāpana archaeological Bonampak, 10 km o ke alanui lepo ʻoluʻolu. Mālama maikaʻi ʻia kāna mau mural no ka mea ʻo ka hana hoʻāla hou ma luna o lākou a ma nā wahi o nā ʻōpala ka papa mua. Akā e hoʻi kāua i Lacanjá.
Noho ʻo 127 ʻohana Lacandon i kēlā kauhale liʻiliʻi. ʻOluʻolu ka haku hana ʻo Bor García Paniagua i ka hoʻokipa ʻana i nā malihini a kūʻai aku iā lākou i kāna mau ʻāpana o nā kiʻi kaulana: jaguars i kālai ʻia i ka lāʻau, nā pēpē pālolo i kāhiko ʻia me nā lole olonā i kapa ʻia ʻo majahua a me nā lei like ʻole i hana ʻia me nā hua pāhulu mai ia wahi, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe .
Ma ke ala, hāʻawi nā Lacandons makua iā lākou iho i ka inoa a lākou e makemake nui ai, me ka nānā ʻole i ka mea a ko lākou mau mākua i hāʻawi ai iā lākou, no laila he nui nā homonyms o nā pelekikena o Mekiko a me kēia mea pena kiʻi me nā inoa o ke kiaʻāina Chiapas. Ma Lacanjá ua hoʻolimalima mākou i kahi alakaʻi ʻōpio nona ka inoa ʻo Kin (Sol) Chancayún (pi liʻiliʻi), nāna mākou i lawe i La Cascada, kahi wahi paradisoacal 4 km ma ka wāwae ma ke ala e hele aʻe i ka ululāʻau paʻa, ʻaneʻane pouli ma muli o ka 3. "Nā papahele" o nā mea kanu e kau ana ma luna o ko mākou mau poʻo; ua hele mākou i ʻumikūmākahi mau kahawai ma nā alahaka lāʻau rust. He 3 mau wailele ʻo ka Wailele, ʻo ka mea nui nona kahi 15 m kiʻekiʻe a hoʻokumu ʻia e ka muliwai Cedro; Hāʻawi ʻia i nā ʻauʻau nani no ka ʻauʻau ʻana. Ma muli o ka hanana hydrological iho a me ke alahele kupaianaha maikaʻi ma waena o lianas a me arboreal colossi (ma kahi o hoʻokahi hola a me hoʻokahi hola i hoʻi aku), pono ke kipa aku!
E hoʻomau ma ke alaloa o ka palena. Ma kahi o km 120 e loaʻa iā mākou ka Reserve Reserve o ka Sierra de la Cojolita. E hoʻomau kāua a hiki i ka km 137 a lawe i kahi lālā 17 km i ka hema e lawe iā mākou i ke kaona ʻo Frontera Corozal, ma ke kapa o ka muliwai Usumacinta, ma mua o Guatemala; aia kahi hōkele ʻo ecotourism ejidal maikaʻi ʻo Escudo Jaguar, me nā bungalow liʻiliʻi e mālama ai i ka naʻauao o ka hoʻolālā vernacular. Ma laila pono mākou i hoʻolimalima ai i kahi waʻa kuʻikuʻi lōʻihi a ʻikiʻī hoʻi e holo i 45 mau minuke i lalo i ka Yaxchilán kupaianaha, ke kūlanakauhale nalo o nā Mei, kahi a mākou i hōʻea ai ma hope o ke ao i ka noe e lana ana ma luna o ka muliwai.
Ua pono mākou e lohe i kekahi mau leo weliweli a hohonu hoʻi, i hōʻike iā mākou i waenakonu o ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana o nā pōpoki hihiu; Ua lilo ia i pūʻulu o nā saraguatos, e kani felinely a neʻe i waena o nā kiʻekiʻe loa o nā treetops nunui. Ua ʻike pū mākou i kahi hui o nā moʻo punawelewele pāʻani, kahi ʻāpana o nā macaws nunui, nā touchans ʻelua, a me nā manu ʻē aʻe a me nā mea kolo like ʻole. Ma ke ala, ma Simojovel ua hoʻāʻo mākou i ka tzatz, nā ʻenuhe lāʻau palai palai a kāwili ʻia me ka paʻakai, lemon a hoʻomaloʻo ʻia a me ka chili lepo.
ʻO ka hoʻi i Frontera Corozal i hoʻokahi hola e holo kūʻē i ke au. Mai kēia kūlanakauhale hoʻokahi hiki ke hoʻolimalima i ka moku e hōʻea i ka hapalua hola i Betela, kahi kūlanakauhale kahakai ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻo Guatemalan.
Hoʻomau mākou ma ke ala a ma km 177 hele mākou i ka muliwai ʻo Lacantún; Ma km 185 ke kaona ʻo Benemérito de las Américas aia a laila aia kekahi mau kahawai ʻē aʻe: ʻo Chajul ma km 299 a me Ixcán i 315.
I ka hope hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokele i 30 mau minuke e hiki ai i Ixcán Station, kahi kikowaena ecotourism me kahi noho, nā meaʻai, nā wahi hoʻomoana, nā huakaʻi hele ma nā ala like ʻole i loko o ka ululāʻau, nā lāʻau kia pua a me nā holoholona, nā huakaʻi hele ma ke kahawai ʻo Jataté, ka moʻokūʻauhau. rapids, temazcal, orchid a me nā mea hou aku.
Ke hele nei i ke ala nui a nui nā kahawai: Santo Domingo ma km 358, Dolores ma 366 a ma hope iki o ke kaona ʻo Nuevo Huixtán, kahi e ulu ai i ka makahiki. Ma km 372 kea i ka muliwai Pacayal. Ma mua ʻo Nuevo San Juan Chamula, kaona ʻo Las Margaritas, kahi e ulu ai nā paina ono e like me nā Hawaiʻi.
Ma ʻaneʻi ua lilo ke ala i piʻi piʻi, wili, me nā hiʻohiʻona kupaianaha o nā awāwa, nona nā mea kanu momona e hoʻololi nei mai ka ululāʻau a i ka semi-tropical. ʻO nā pua kūwaho i kapa ʻia ʻo "manu o paradaiso" he nui, e ulu wale ana ma aneʻi. Nui nā Bromeliads a me nā orchids.
ʻO ka muliwai koʻikoʻi hope loa ka Santa Elena ma km 380. Ma hope, i ke kokoke ʻana i 422, hoʻomaka nā ʻano loko ʻē aʻe e ʻike ʻia ma ka ʻākau a me ka hema me ka piha o nā kala polū: ua hōʻea mākou i Montebello!
