Tierra del Volcán (Volcano Land) High Adventure, offers eco-tourism and adventure travel. We operate three working haciendas or farms: Hacienda El Porvenir, Hacienda El Tambo Quilindaña and Hacienda Santa Rita Ecological Reserve, in the region surrounding the Cotopaxi Volcano, each one with its own charm, ecosystem and distinctive touch. This area is known as the Land of the Four Corners due to the four volcanoes that surround us: Rumiñahui 4,712 m (15,455 ft), Pasochoa 4200 m (13,776 ft), Sincholagua 4893 m (16049 ft) and Quilindaña 4878 m (16000 ft), with snow capped Cotopaxi at its center.
A broad range of activities are available, from horseback riding while experiencing the culture of the Chagra (the Ecuadorian highland cowboy), dining in traditional straw-roofed farmhouses, camping in small valleys hidden between mountain folds, trekking around the premises enjoying the magnificent scenery, climbing impressive peaks immersed in an awe-inspiring landscapes. At the farmhouses you will have the chance to participate in the daily life of the haciendas or relax in front of a crackling fire. We always endeavour to make your stay with us enjoyable and as adventurous as you desire.
One of Tierra del Volcán´s main goals is to preserve one of the most beautiful places on our planet, for our own benefit and that of future generations. We are a forward-looking enterprise committed to the preservation of the environment through the use of sustainable methods. We are certified by the Ministry of Tourism and the Ecuadorian Association of Ecotourism, as a company committed to the preservation of the environment.
