The first steps

Yarina Eco Lodge was built 25 years ago, at first it was as a rescue center, then with the years it became a tourism center. Our main objective has always been and will be forest conservation and preservation of the environment.

Yarina Eco Lodge is in a tropical humid forest spanning over 400 hectares, located a one-hour canoe ride from El Coca city, in the zone of influence of Yasuní National Park, right in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest.

We continue the work...

As time went by, we also built the Amazon Dolphin Lodge, an eco lodge that it´s located in the Pañacocha forest, five hours from “El Coca City”.

The Pañacocha Protected Forest, (56,000 hectares) is a Biological Corridor that unites the Yasuni National Park and the Cuyabeno Faunal Production Reserve.

Pañacocha is classified as a Tropical Humid Forest. Its natural wildlife is abundant in each of its corners. A short list of possibilities to observe includes: 5 species of monkeys (howler, capuchin, lion, barizo, spider), marmots, otters, caiman, of course the freshwater pink Amazonian dolphin and many more.
