Chilcabamba Mountain Lodge

This lodge is in a spectacular location, boasting panoramic views of the mountain range and has tons of character within its walls. Chilcabamba Mountain Lodge epitomises Ecuadorian traditional charm, it’s a warm and inviting space welcoming visitors in from the fresh mountain air outside. 

The lodge is located in a stunning valley encircled by the peaks of four towering mountains: Pasochoa, Ruminahui, Cotopaxi and Sincholagua. This is the ideal base for guests who want to sink deep into nature, and get to know the Ecuadorian highlands on foot, horseback or bicycle. 

So much of what makes this lodge so special is the people who run it. The outstanding knowledge of awesome trekking routes and epic explorations in Cotopaxi National Park shines through with daily experiences here. 

The owners of Chilcabamba Mountain Lodge wish to share a home with their guests. The sublime landscapes surrounding are viewed from every window and garden space of Chilcabamba. These world-class vistas aren’t something that many people get to see and experience. 

From the lodge, set off to explore the Pita river and gushing falls whose cold water course runs straight from the Cotopaxi volcano’s glacier. Visit the Jose Rivas Refuge neighbouring, or buckle up and horse ride inside the National Park watching condors soar overhead. 

This is a destination for the active and ambitious traveller, with oodles of fascinating opportunities for families. Each day in Chilcabamba Mountain Lodge is action packed, and evenings spent by a warming open fire gazing at the star cluttered sky is absolute bliss in a remote environment.
