Hi, I'm Yunguilla and I’ll be happy to host you during your stay!
Yunguilla is a non-profit organisation that has been working for community development for 27 years through conservation, community tourism and sustainable micro-enterprises such as the production of cheese, jams, handicrafts and much more. Located just one hour north of Quito in the municipality of Calacalí, Yunguilla is situated in the cloud forest at an altitude of 2650 metres above sea level.
The 55 families of the Yunguilla community have been working in an organised way since 1995 to improve the quality of life through proper management of natural resources. We have developed the offer of community tourism from the perspective of communal living, sharing customs and cultures in this way.
