Welcome to the only ecological resort using renewable energy inside a 2500 year old caldera (crater) of an extinct volcano. It is a quiet and mystical place near Quito where you can find many things to do, including a visit to La Mitad del Mundo which is only 3 km away. Come here to relax and explore the many trails for hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking. We will make every effort to give you a pleasant stay.
The caldera is part of a Geobotanical Reserve with multiple micro climates that create a rich biological environment. There are many types of wild flowers, orchids, birds, insects, reptiles, amphibians, and farm animals that live here.
Horseback Riding is the favorite activity for our clients. Our horses are friendly, well behaved, well fed, and strong. You will be very satisfied with our new riding equipment and the crater’s awesome trails. We offer a variety of tours from just a short ride to multiple day tours. All of our tours are catered to the ability of each rider. The beginner rider or the most experienced rider is sure to enjoy an unforgettable tour.
Mountain biking is also a very popular activity. We offer you new equipment and fun trails. The trails are inside the reserve and are sure to provide something exciting for every level of experience.

Stay in our cabañas, in the main house or in the camping area. Complete your day of adventure and fun by relaxing in the Jacuzzi surrounded by this enchanting environment hidden from civilization.
Join us for a healthy meal. Our ingredients are produced on the organic farm. We plant tomatoes, alfalfa, beets, lettuce, carrots, cabbage and those vegetables that are native to this area. We also raise chickens, pigs, and guinea-pigs. Our chickens produce fresh eggs daily.
For your total comfort we also offer other services like transportation from La Mitad del Mundo, from Quito, and from the crater’s edge. We can also help you with laundry, & guided tours. Our guided tours focused on the history of the volcano and the natural makeup of the Geobotanical Reserve.
We are constantly looking for ways to educate the locals and the tourist on the importance of protecting this unique place. We believe in protecting the environment and have applied many systems and practices for Sustainable Ecological Tourism. For those interested in volunteering in the Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve, there is an agricultural program and a small community school with 16 children.
