The Rinconcito Lodge

We spent our first night at the Rinconcito Lodge on the edge of the Rincón de la Vieja National Park. This family-run ecotourism lodge offers guided walks and tours to natural areas close by, although we were too tired when we arrived to do much and didn't have much time the following day before checkout. I spent my time exploring the property, which was built into the slope of the volcano and had a colony of Montezuma Oropendolas nesting on it!
