Birding & culinary journeys
Discover Colombia’s Western Andes through extraordinary birdlife, garden-to-table cooking, and warm hospitality at Araucana Lodge, near Cali.
A place of rare beauty
Comfort, beauty, and care belong together here—in the lodge, across the land, and within the community that makes Araucana possible.
Araucana Lodge, Colombia’s Western Andes.
Set among bamboo and palms in Colombia’s Western Andes, Araucana Lodge is a ten-room retreat just below the cloud forest outside Cali.
Watch for birds along the forest trails, explore the gardens, and sit down to meals made with produce from our farm.
