Río Cangrejal and Pico Bonito

Pico Bonito Park

On the following panorama, one can see the mountains of the Pico Bonito Park over the plains near the city of La Ceiba. This vast park is a dense jungle that is not easy to explore. Some 20 rivers originate from these mountains, and several waterfalls can be observed... More easily accessible, the Río Cangrejal offers some nice scenery, and the possibility to do rafting, in season.

When I reached the area, I didn't think I would spend a lot of time there. But when I found this lodge on the shore of the Cangrejal River, I found a small paradise. I installed the tent near the river on an isolated site only for me, and I could enjoy the facilities of this superb place.

A few metres from my campsite...

In front of the lodge, the river is magnificent.

Imagine! To reach your cottage, you must use this gondola. Awesome!
