Oh man! I would love to experience that someday in the not too distant future!
According to their website it’s possible to drive to the Lodge from GT.
Wonder how safe (passable) or treacherous that is!! big grin

You could drive to the lodge from GT... These days cars and minibus go all the way to Lethem. Within the next couple years the road suppose to become a highway... Currently they are doing the first phase which is from Linden to Mabura... All the bridges from Linden to Lethem under construction too, from wood to concrete.

Could visit Iwokrama, Atta eco lodge or the many others on the way.

In 2003, when I visited we drove to Aroima from Linden. I guess that is part of the trail going towards Lethem???

I would love to do that also , but I keep wondering about outlaws in those remote areas - but that’s really alluring

Actually safer than most parts of the planet

I think that's a different trail.

Here are some videos from Guyanese youtuber ARD recent trip to Lethem for the rodeo... He showed the journey from Linden to Kurupukari and then Kurupukari to Lethem..

Linden to Kurupukari

Kurupulari to Lethem
