The Cusuco National Park is located only a few km from San Pedro Sula. cusuco is a clod forest environment that is native only to Central America. This environment is unique because of the moisture dropped into the forest by the clouds that usually cover the mountains. The cloud forest habit reaches its full splendor at altitudes of 1,800 meters over sea level (6,000 ft). Huge ferns mixed with pine, oak, liquidambar and many broad trees flourish in this environment. Jaguars, deers, peccaries, monkeys and many tropical birds, including the famous quetzal live here. Our tour starts in San Pedro Sula in the morning, and after a 2 hrs. ride using a spectacular mountain dirt road we will arrive at the visitor's center of the park, at an elevation of over 1,800 meters. From here, we will hike some of the trails that lead into the heart of the park, where you will see giant ferns, and with luck, the elusive quetzal. During the hike our bilingual guide will pint out many interesting facts concerning the cloud forests. After the walk, a light lunch will be served at the visitor's center before beginning our journey back to San Pedro Sula. Meals included: Lunch.
