We have a natural interest in all that is around us, the forest, flora and fauna. Pook's Hill Nature Reserve offers an ideal location, in the heart of prime rainforest, for students and researchers alike. Adjacent to the 300 acre private reserve at Pook's Hill, is the 6,700 acre preserve of the Tapir Mountain Reserve. This is closed to tourism but access is available for research. This preserve is managed by the Audubon Society Belize.

Researchers use our facilities and leave valuable information. This is available to all our guests. There is also a well established High Rise Habitat for nesting birds.
