History & Owners
The Trek Stop and Tropical Wings Nature Center are owned and operated by
SUSA, Inc. Ltd., a Belizean company formed in 1996 as a joint venture
between four Belizeans from San Jose Succotz and three Americans from
Michigan. The company's name combines Succotz and U.S.A. into a single
word and symbolizes the collaborative nature of our enterprise. Tino,
John, Judy, Florita and Rojelio are the people responsible for the
day-to-day running of The Trek Stop. Through their combined skills,
knowledge, and talents, they have tried to make The Trek Stop the kind of
place they would like to stay themselves. The name is a pun on "truck
stop". It's envisioned as a place where travelers can relax for a few
days or use as a base to explore Cayo District.

Location & Directions
71 1/2 Miles Western Highway, San Jose Succotz
The Trek Stop is adjacent to Tropical Wings Nature Center, along the Western Highway in the Cayo District of Belize. Six miles west of San Ignacio, The Trek Stop is just east of San Jos? Succotz Village, about 1/4 mile from the Xunantunich ferry and 3 miles east of the Guatemalan border. By car, it takes about 1 ? hours to drive from the Belize airport to The Trek Stop. Driving west out of San Ignacio, you are getting close when you pass the road to Chaa Creek and duPlooy's and then the road to the Garden Center. The Trek Stop is on the left as you start to go down the hill into Succotz Village.
Bus routes from Belize City, Belmopan, San Ignacio, and the Guatemalan border offer frequent service throughout the day; all buses going east and west along the Western Highway go right past the Trek Stop and will stop if you let the conductor know where you want to get off. Van shuttle service is also often available from the airport to Cayo District; we can help make arrangements for you if you wish.
