Surrounded by 205 acres of private cloud forest reserve at an altitude of 2,200 metres above sea level, Trogon Lodge provides 25 rooms in 12 log cabin units dotted around the gardens.
Not only is Trogon lodge one of the smaller properties in this region, but its location also allows for unrivalled access to private trails direct from the lodge into the surrounding forest and one of the best chances of seeing the Quetzal.
Join a local guide for a morning coffee before setting off on foot through the forest of San Gerardo de Dota in search of Costa Rica’s resplendent quetzal, as well as other native species. For the more adventurous, hike up to an altitude of 3,300 metres above sea level to Paramo at Cerro de la Muerte to discover the variety of birds and plants, many of which are only found in this area due to the high elevation.
