Tucked high in the mountains near the Jimaní-Malpasse border crossing is an ecological campground that caters to birdwatchers. Although this part of the border is very dry and barren, the mountains are lush and green.
In the video below, Kate describes the birds that can be seen in the area:
The camp itself is located in the town of Puerto Escondido
The camp has both tents and basic screened rooms as well as showers and toilets. Kate can either arrange to have your meals cooked for you or you can bring your own food. It is a wonderful way to experience a very special part of the borderlands.
Kate provides basic tents with pads under a thatched roof
The camp has a nice dining area and Kate can provide meals
