PAID CONTENT FOR HACIENDA HOSTERÍA DOS CHORRERAS
Hacienda Hostería Dos Chorreras CUENCA, ECUADOR
Situated 25 minutes from the historic city of Cuenca, Hacienda Hostería Dos Chorreras provides an ideal base for exploring Cajas National Park, one of Ecuador’s most important high-Andean protected areas. The park is home to more than 230 glacial lakes and forms part of a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance, recognised for its role in conserving freshwater resources and biodiversity. Beyond its natural attractions, the property
offers visitors the opportunity to stay overnight in mountain rooms and private cabins, many featuring fireplaces and views across the Andean landscape. Its proximity to the Unesco World Heritage city of Cuenca also makes it an ideal base. Located within the park’s buffer zone, the
hacienda offers direct access to hiking trails, mountain rivers, páramo grasslands and polylepis forests, among the highest-altitude woodlands on Earth. Its mountain rooms and private cabins blend naturally into the landscape, providing comfortable accommodation for couples, families and independent travellers seeking to combine outdoor adventure with relaxation.
One of the property’s most distinctive
experiences is Guavidula, a heritage village inspired by Andean settlements from the early 20th century. Traditional architecture, interpretive spaces and cultural displays offer insight into the lifestyle and traditions of mountain communities that once inhabited the region. Visitors can also explore scenic walking trails, enjoy birdwatching, cycle through the surrounding countryside, paddle across mountain lagoons by canoe and experience traditional trout fishing. Regional cuisine is another highlight. The
hacienda’s restaurant showcases the flavours of southern Ecuador through seasonal local ingredients, freshly caught trout, artisan cheeses and traditional Andean recipes prepared with a contemporary touch. The culinary experience continues at Chocolatería Dos Chorreras, where Ecuador’s renowned fine-flavour cacao is crafted into handmade chocolates and desserts, while the art and pizza creative studio combines wood-fired pizzas with painting and ceramics workshops designed for both children and adults.
