CERRO BIOLLEY LODGE BY ASOMOBI
A beautiful experience with coffee aroma!
Biolley is a farmer’s community in the Southern area of Costa Rica that has the great privilege of being surrounded by the mountains of La Amistad Internacional Park. It offers marvelous views of this impressive forest, a very comfortable climate. The people are friendly and enthusiastic, willing to share their culture and traditions. They enjoy sharing local cooking recipes, how to make tortillas, and other local knowleges, such as the process of making honey and coffee, latin dancing, among others. Besides the great location just next to La Amistad and the friendly people, ASOMOBI offers a very interesting experience as it is an association run by valiant women who have won prices for the quality coffee they produce in their own coffee mill…the Lodge is located next to the coffee-mill!
Biolley is an open door to La Amistad International Park!
La Amistad International Park is a binational park that spreads from the Costa Rican Talamanca mountain range all the way to the Southern part in Panama. La Amistad International Park is a virgin forest with endemic species, such as Quercus trees. In this park we can locate various mountains, such as Biolley, Hoffman, Quemado, Kamuk and Cabecar, among others. It also offers various ecosystems, such as Paramus and high altitude savannas. If you are lucky you can observe the long-tailed manakin, howler monkeys, among other species. To sleep while being surrounded by La Amistad International Park fills you with great health.
