Scroll Down to Know About Our History
From the ancient language of MAPUCHES, MAPU means LAND. These people really care about the quality of their food, avoiding chemicals, pharmaceutics, deeply protecting the environment and respecting its power. For us it's a place we want to protect and care for; by living life as sustainable as possible. We are more conscious about what we eat and where our food comes from. Finding balance between BODY, MIND & SOUL is the real success in life.
We wanted to reconnect. We wanted to change from a huge and busy city and find a healthy balance. Then we found this piece of land. Where clock runs differently. Where difficulties give us strength. We arrived here in 2014 and since then we've been working on the project, upgrading infrastructure, building our cabins, planting in our organic garden and learning from the land. Since the beginning things have been happening naturally in creating this landmark and we're able to share lots of stories and knowledge with people who seek this same connection. The soul of our project is to connect people from all over the world with the same intention: exchange knowledge and experiences.
Being able to keep protecting and living with a better meaning of life. Applying simple steps, learning from local people and also sharing with local people some other possibilities. Showing them we're all connected and that we must keep taking care of this place.
7 minutes walking in our senderos to meet Lonconao Lake, natural terraces over rocks with astonishing views, natural sculptures made by old roots and trees, bird watching like martin pescador, condors or pitios flying above our heads, or watching stars on super clear sky.
It's said that WE ARE WHAT WE EAT . That's why we give so much importance to the quality of the food we eat. Our garden and greenhouse were created to supply fresh vegetables, fruits and herbs for all seasons. We spend much work and energy during all over year. So we invite our guests to colaborate with us !
