From Puerto Carreño, Vichada, we develop two lines of work connected by the same territory: nature tourism experiences and specialized solutions for cashew cultivation.
Hacienda Los Amores: a territory where nature, production and knowledge coexist.
Nature to experience, understand and care for.
Connected with nature
We aim to connect our visitors with the fauna, flora, and diverse landscapes and habitats of this part of the Orinoco region, fostering an awareness of environmental preservation and respect for the area's diverse cultures.
We are located within the El Tuparro National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, and are nestled within the largest Ramsar wetland in the country, encompassing the Bita River (a protected river), the Orinoco, Meta, Mesetas, Dagua, Caño Negro, Tomo, and Tuparro rivers.
We are situated on the Guiana Shield, a Precambrian geological formation considered one of the oldest on Earth, home to immense biological and cultural diversity.
Ecolodge Hacienda Los Amores
We are located on the banks of the Bita River, a half-hour drive from the town of Puerto Carreño.
We offer thatched-roof huts (caneys), a cabin with separate bedrooms and private bathrooms, solar power and a camping area.
Accommodation availability and room arrangements are confirmed in your personalised quote.

Ventanas – Las Ceibas Trail
We depart from the Ecolodge by land to the Ventanas Nature Reserve, where we will begin the hike to the Cerro de Las Ceibas; where you can admire the majestic trees that grow on the gigantic stones and a place of high energy called La Maloca; an altar built naturally by 3 giant stones, which form an impressive structure.
Pictograms and San Roque Pond Expedition
We will discover ancient geological formations and on them, pictographs or prehistoric cave paintings; then we will embark on the journey through the Tepuy, or plateau of vertical walls formed by millions of years of erosion, in search of the Charca de San Roque, a place to rest, swim and spend the afternoon.
*From February to May, the Charca de San Roque is replaced by the spa in Mesetas.
Atures and Palo Mazón Rapids – Petroglyph Islands
Trail to observe the Autures and Palo Mazón rapids, and visit the island of petroglyphs.
