Whispers of the cloud forest awakened me; a symphony of life, iridescent jewels, and the quiet hum of a place more biodiverse than the Galapagos.

Blog Image Awakening to the symphony of the cloud forest at 馃搷The Cloud Forest Retreat is an experience unlike any other. The mist hangs heavy, clinging to the vibrant green orchids and bromeliads that adorn the lodge’s rustic exterior. Last night, I witnessed a family of spectacled hummingbirds, their iridescent feathers flashing like tiny jewels in the dappled sunlight filtering through the canopy. The air is alive with the calls of unseen creatures. The Choc贸 Andino de Pichincha, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, is incredibly biodiverse – did you know it holds a higher concentration of endemic species than the Galapagos Islands? This morning, I joined a local guide on a gentle hike, learning about the medicinal properties of the plants around us and the cultural significance of the forest to the indigenous communities. The quiet hum of the forest, the scent of damp earth and blooming flowers – it’s a sensory immersion that leaves you feeling deeply connected to nature. What wild creature would you most love to encounter in a cloud forest?
