THE MAQUIPUCUNA LEGACY
(mă-kē-pū-kū-nă)
For 35 years Maquipucuna has acted as a beacon of light within the Chocó Andino bioregion, jump-starting conservation in continental Ecuador. Covering over 14,000 acres, the Maquipucuna Reserve is the product of a lifetime’s work. Maquipucuna has invested in the research and protection of one of the top 5 biodiversity hotspots in the world; including that of endangered species such as the Andean (spectacled) bear
LIVE THE MAQUIPUCUNA EXPERIENCE
Maquipucuna is a place for families, couples, adventurists, and wildlife lovers to learn, explore and play. We provide more than just the standard ecotourism experience, but a place for people to reconnect with nature and more importantly, give back to the community through the foundation that started it all: Fundación Maquipucuna
