Awakening to the symphony of the cloud forest at 📍The Cloud Forest Retreat is an experience unlike any other. The air, thick with the scent of orchids and damp earth, hangs heavy with the mist. Sunlight filters weakly through the canopy, illuminating vibrant green bromeliads clinging to ancient trees. This morning, a tiny hummingbird, a blur of iridescent feathers, zipped past my window, a tiny jewel against the mossy backdrop.
The Chocó Andino de Pichincha, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, boasts incredible biodiversity – did you know it's home to over 60% of Ecuador's bird species? Later, I hope to join a guided walk through the reserve, learning more about the local flora and fauna, perhaps even spotting a spectacled bear in the distance. The serenity here is profound; a gentle reminder of nature's power to heal and inspire.
What whispers of the wild will you hear on your own cloud forest adventure?
