Jungle trekking to the ruins of Palenque

The second time I visited Palenque was quite different from the first one.
I was with my australian friends and instead of doing the ordinary ride on a bus, we did a jungle trek near the area of Palenque.
We joined several other travelers and together we went through some really interesting paths, waterfalls and ruins outside of the main site of Palenque, completely off the beaten path.
Admiring the jungle of Palenque
One of the several waterfalls in Palenque
Funny mushrooms
Doing some monkey business
The desolated path
A forgotten building outside the Palenque site
An ancient Mayan aqueduct still working
Rob getting some fresh water from a river
Stepping on slippery rocks
More pretty waterfalls
The best part of our trek!
We arrived late to the ruins so we got a free entrance to the site
And almost no tourists!
Free avocados inside Palenque!
