Hacienda El Porvenir by Tierra del Volcán

On the slopes of Rumiñahui Volcano, in a truly privileged location, Hacienda El Porvenir is the ideal spot to explore Cotopaxi Volcano and its surroundings. It is one of the best and most intense ways to get to know, first hand, the Andean way of life and to have the most thrilling adventures, having the privilege of offering our guests a diversity of options. El Porvenir is just an hour and a half away from Quito by car and is located four kilometers from the northern entrance of Cotopaxi National Park. The house is located in a very scenic spot, at an altitude of 3,600 meters (11,811 feet) above sea level. The scenic premises are surrounded by four volcanoes, one of which is the famous Cotopaxi volcano. Our guests can enjoy their stay in a comfortable, warm, and operating «Hacienda» setting. El Porvenir is a working ranch that is dedicated to sustainable agriculture and cattle farming, conservation, and ecotourism. We produce milk, cheese and also grow some of the vegetables offered in our restaurant. Our herb garden is essential to what we cook up in our kitchen! The farmhouse is made from local building materials, keeping the spirit and essence of traditional Andean construction. Faithful to its vernacular design and in line with its needs, the buildings of Hacienda El Porvenir are distributed around a large courtyard. El Porvenir comprises the following: Casa Principal, Casa Chica, Casa del Establo, and APU Mountain SPA.
