How to Get Here
By car from Quito, approximate travel time from Quito is 5.5 hours without stops. You also have the option of flying into Coca during the week. Private car from Coca to the Yachana is approximately a two hour drive.
Traveling to Yachana is a journey from the Andes to the Amazon. Starting in Quito (9,350 ft / 2,850 m), you’ll cross the Papallacta Pass (13,779 ft / 4,200 m) before descending through stunning landscapes.
Stop at Papallacta to enjoy hot springs and hummingbirds, then continue past waterfalls, the Antisana volcano, and the town of Baeza. From here, the road enters the Oriente, the same route once taken by explorer Francisco de Orellana in 1542.
As you approach, a dirt road leads into the rainforest—your gateway to the Yachana Lodge in the heart of the Amazon.
