Pico Bonito National Park

Honduras' largest National Park and home to the country's highest point, Pico Bonito. Covering over 100,000 hectares of virgin rain and cloud forest, with an unexplored core area of over 500 square km, Pico Bonito National Park is filled with mountains, waterfalls and hundreds of wildlife species. Seven different ecosystems fill its borders, providing homes to jaguars, tapirs, monkeys, alligators and over 275 different species of birds. The Rio Cangrejal, one of Honduras’ most beautiful and powerful rivers, forms the eastern border of the park. The Park offers excellent bird watching (over 325 species identified in the area), swimming under the waterfalls and hiking on trails up the river valleys into the thick of the rain forest. We thoroughly recommend a stay at the very comfortable Lodge at Pico Bonito for a few days relaxation and wildlife spotting.
