The Mapajo Lodge was built by us, the people of the Quiquibey river, using mostly local materials and based on our traditional style of construction. The Lodge is the starting point for discovering all the different streams and rivers, forests, mountains and communities in our indigenous territory.
Accommodation
The Mapajo Lodge has four twin-bed cabins with shared bathroom facilities; one family cabin with private bathroom and capacity for 6 guests; and one double cabin with private bathroom. All cabins are fully equiped with beds, mosquito nets, bedside tables, shelves, deck chairs and hammocks, and the showers have hot water.
Catering
The lodge includes a kitchen and dining room cabin, where traditional food can be enjoyed, catering to visitors requirements. The food is prepared by a team of community members trained in the preparation of balanced meals and hygiene. Safe drinking water is piped directly from a local spring.
