Today, you’ll explore one of Belize’s most famous caves. Ranked as one of the Top 10 Caves in the world By the National Geographic Magazine, the trip starts with an hour and a half drive from Blancaneaux Lodge followed by a 40-minute trek through the Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve to the Cave’s Entrance. ATM Cave is only recommended for those of an adventurous spirit who have a good level of fitness.
The underground stream flows out of the cave entrance and it’s necessary to take a short swim into the cave (water depth is about 12 feet). The adventure entails hiking through the water, maneuvering through some tight spaces, and climbing over rocks to reach to the different levels. The rewards are worth it. Two small carved stelae are located above the stream, one carved in the shape of an obsidian blade and the other a stingray spine. On the next level lies the cave’s most famous occupant, the crystal maiden, an ancient victim of ritual sacrifice probably from the Late Classic Period.
