Big Rock Falls, Natural waterfall in Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve, Belize.

Big Rock Falls lies on the Privassion River within the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve, a protected area in Belize's Cayo District. The reserve status covers the waterfall and the surrounding pine forest, keeping the 150-foot drop and its river setting within a managed conservation area rather than open land.

Big Rock Falls lies on the Privassion River inside the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve, a protected area of the Cayo District. Visitors reach the falls on foot through the reserve and swim in the pool at the base of the 150-foot drop. The name comes from the large granite blocks that frame the cascade and its pool.

A wooden stairway descends from the parking area to the falls, taking about 15 minutes to complete the walk down. Wear sturdy shoes with good grip since the paths can be slippery, especially after rain.

The base pool has natural rock formations that create separate swimming areas at different water depths. This natural arrangement lets visitors choose areas suited to their swimming comfort level.
