THE ECOLODGE

Very near to Vilcabamba's center, the ecolodge provides a human habitat within the valley's only remaining semi-natural protected setting. It shares the reserve's name and serves as a "symbiotic" support to its conservation goals. Approximately 33% of your money is destined to the various management programs of Rumi Wilco: reforestation with native species, riverbank repair from floods, nature trails, scientific research, community services, etc.

So, we encourage travelers who visit " VILCA-BAMBA " (plain of the sacred tree -the Wilco- to ancient Incas), to consider this as a place to stay…or visit.
