After taking a guided tour, I went off for a bit to hike on my own. I took one of the longer trails that offered more variety in vegetation and had different terrain. This trail was definitely off the beaten path and not well traveled - the guides obviously didn't take groups here. There were vines hanging from the canopy above that I understood could support a fair amount of weight. I used one of these to cross a mud pit. It was right out of Pit Fall.
When I was walking in this place I had one recurring thought: Dagobah.
