Introducing Marcala

Marcala, the southern end of the Ruta Lenca, is a quiet mountain town with a strong indigenous history and character. The town is known for producing world-class coffee beans. In fact, coffee from Macala was the first in Central America to receive the prestigious ‘Denomination of Origin’ stamp, protecting the authenticity of beans from this region. An organic coffee and produce cooperative – the first of its kind in Honduras – offers tours of its member plantations and processing plants. There are a few mildly interesting hikes in the area, as well.
