The cloud forests of Ecuador are among the most biodiverse places on Earth, where warm air from the Amazon meets the cool slopes of the Andes to create a landscape of mist-shrouded trees, tumbling waterfalls and astonishing wildlife. Despite being within a few hours of Quito, stepping into the cloud forest feels like entering another world.
This is a destination for travellers who enjoy slowing down and looking closely. Guided walks reveal orchids clinging to moss-covered branches, brilliantly coloured hummingbirds darting between flowers and troops of monkeys moving through the canopy. More elusive residents include the spectacled bear, ocelot and the striking Andean cock-of-the-rock, while after dark the forest comes alive with frogs, insects and nocturnal mammals.
The experience is enhanced by a collection of exceptional lodges, many set within private reserves dedicated to protecting these fragile ecosystems. Whether you’re enjoying breakfast surrounded by hummingbirds, exploring hidden trails with expert naturalists or relaxing on your terrace listening to the sounds of the forest, nature is never far away.
For us, Ecuador’s cloud forest is far more than a wildlife destination. It offers a rare opportunity to disconnect, immerse yourself in nature and experience one of the planet’s richest ecosystems in genuine comfort.


A single hectare of Ecuadorian cloud forest can contain more tree species than are found in the whole of the UK, making it one of the most botanically diverse habitats on Earth.
Ecuador’s cloud forests are among the best places in the world to see hummingbirds, with more than 130 species recorded across the country, accounting for almost one in three of all hummingbird species on Earth.
Nothing but the best. Browse our handpicked, tried-and-tested luxury lodges.
The journey from Quito to the cloud forest takes between 2 and 3.5 hours by road. The journey is part of the experience as you descend from the high Andes into the lush, mist-covered forests of the Chocó bioregion.
June is a wonderful month to be in the cloud forest when there is less rainfall than in other months, and the birdlife is easier to spot while out hiking the trails and canopy walks.
