Wilderness Experience
5 Days / 4 Nights Approach: Nature encounter, hiking & National Parks. Guaranteed with only 2 passengers
Day 1: San Pedro Sula – Cusuco National
Park Meet with your guide at the lobby of your hotel. Overland
transfer with 4x4 vehicle to Buenos Aires, a coffee growing community in the
damping zone of the Cusuco National Park. There we take quarter at the simple
but nice “Eco Albergue”. Afterwards we explore the surroundings before dinner.
2 Overnights Eco Albergue.
Day 2: Cusuco National
Park Day to explore and appreciate the magnificent biodiversity of the
cloud forest. With some luck we may spot a variety of wildlife such as toucans,
monkeys, tapirs or the resplendent quetzal. Huge tree ferns - up to 20 meters
tall, the highest in all Central America – are typical for Cusuco and give the
impression of being in a Jurassic world. From March to May one of the typical
early morning sounds of Cusuco National Park is the monotonous call of the
resplendent Quetzal, the mystic and holy bird of the Aztecs and Mayans. The
charm of Cusuco does not only come from the nature, but also from the quiet and
harmonic life in the 38 surrounding coffee towns.
