Spot: Finca Lerida Ecolodge
Zone: mountain, coffee farm, cloud forest
The Good Stuff:
This is where home-brewed coffee takes on a whole new meaning. Your mountainside room in this small comfortable, family run lodge is nestled in the middle of a working coffee plantation and surrounded by a large, private natural cloud forest. Each room has its own private porch and is decorated and named after birds found in Finca Lerida Highlands in Boquete. The lodge’s award winning coffee is “produced in keeping with our commitment to preserve the environment and is an important element in sustaining the surrounding forest”. Renowned by birders as an exceptional spot to view many of the birds found in Panama, Finca Lerida also offers the chance to learn about how quality coffee is grown and processed – from bean to cup. Follow the stream on the property through the dense forest to a hidden waterfall and test your bird-spotting skills as the sights and sounds of Boquete inspire.
What we love: The Resplendant Quetzal – You have to see this bird!
Green Cred:
- The lodge is on a private nature reserve which preserves the rich biodiversity of the area
- Coffee plantation is surrounded by primary and secondary forest which protects the watershed
