TROPIC offers a number of exotic escapes to this enchanted environment only an hour from Quito. In the luxuriant, mysterious cloud forests of the Ecuadorian Andes, you will be able to relax, explore, and enjoy a lavish, enchanted land of giant nodding ferns and brilliant orchids.
This is also an internationally recognised ‘important breeding area’ for birds: more than 390 species have been seen in the area’s extensive primary forests, among them 30 species of hummingbird, as well as toucans, and the famous ´Cock of the Rock´.
What makes our Cloud Forest Lodge so special is its small size and personal touches. The lodge has 3 cabañas and a total capacity of 6 to 10 people, and first started receiving guests in 1998. It sits on 44 hectares (110 acres) of land... the lodge and its garden and cabañas take up about 1 hectare (2.5 acres).
And to make sure you get the most out of your stay here, Tropic provides activities such as adventure hikes with spectacular mountain top views over the forest, and mountain bikes to take you deep into the heart of the cloud forest, where with a little luck you will see one of the rare spectacled bears whose habitat this is.
The rest of the land is yours to use for nature walks, bird watching or just enjoying the surrounding forest.
Highlights:
• Hiking above the Clouds
• First Class bird watching and Cock-of-the-Rock Lek
• Biking in the Forest
