Maya mountain ranges
The Maya Mountain ranges are a series of highland regions located in Central America, primarily in Belize and parts of Guatemala and Honduras. These mountains are characterized by rugged terrain, dense forests, and diverse ecosystems, making them rich in biodiversity. The range is part of the larger Mesoamerican mountain system and has significant historical importance, as it was home to the ancient Maya civilization. The mountains influence local climate and water sources, including rivers and waterfalls, and are vital for ecological balance and cultural heritage in the region.
