Finca Agroturística La Protectora

I was in this fascinating project with a group of mountain bikers on a busy MTB tour. For us this was a great place to recover as it is refreshingly cool at this height in the evening. The rustic cabanas are clean, simple and yet built with an eye to detail. Comfortable beds, refreshing showers. No hot water, which is good with me. When we arrived, we rehydrated fruit juice and arometic teas. For dinner there was plenty of delicious food. Buffet breakfast offered a lot of choice for care, especially excellent mangoo. Hot coffee and rich hot cocoa plus fruit juices and teas. Great start to the ride. All food, fruit, coffee, cocoa, teas are grown on the finca that creates jobs for locals. The meat is produced locally. Mario Gonzalez leads the project and is a mine of information. He was supported by Raquel. I highly recommend to relax here, learn about sustainable agriculture, enjoy the view, go for walks. The gravel road from Ranchete to the finca is steep. Only via doable on a mountain bike if you are in very good shape. Most guests are picked up in Ranchete and drive to the finca in a 4x4 pick-up truck. Bicycles fit in the back.

You can start many MTB and tracking tours from here and enjoy this quiet place for the next hard trail

Perfect place to disconnect and enter nature. Excellent attention and prepare many activities without waste

It was an extraordinary experience, I think I will never forget that place, it is a direct contact with nature, something different from what tourism offers. I just want to go back again and again. Thanks to all the staff who receive you there; Josefina with her charming and unforgettable food and her warm embrace, Mario with her reception and joccy that makes you feel part of the family and the lovely Rachel who with her attentions, hug and her knowledge that leaves us all perplexed and eager to stay. That place is part of me. But above all I invite you to have the experience, you will surely not regret it.

Very good place, to get in touch with nature and beautiful landscapes of the 5 regions
