14: Selva Negra Mountain
Resort
Cloud forest nature and organic
shade coffee tour
3 days / 2 nights
High
up in the Cordillera Dariense Mountain Range is the unique
Selva Negra Mountain Resort. The mountain cottages of
this hotel are located in the forest above the city of
Matagalpa on a sprawling gourmet coffee hacienda and private
cloud forest reserve. Owned by grandchildren of German
immigrants, this precious property name Selva Negra is
Spanish for the famous German Black Forest. The coffee
hacienda grows 100% organic shade beans and the level
of recycling used by the owners is nothing short of admirable.
The hotel restaurant which cooks with methane gas from
coffee shell compost sits in front of a mountain pond
wrapped in lush cloud forest. The private cabins of the
hotel are also set in the forest with vibrant gardens
and flowers growing out of the Bavarian style roofs. Each
cabin has a living room with cable TV and a bedroom and
private bath with hot water. The cloud forest reserve
has 14 trails that are crossed by howler monkeys, the
quetzal and wild cats among many other species. This is
not only the best cloud forest lodge in the country, but
also one of the most responsible coffee farms in the world.
The climate at Selva Negra is always spring-like and the
atmosphere is 100% relax.
