What do we offer?

Our touristic center has a rural surrounding with a very quiet atmosphere in which, with pleasure, we offer different dishes at Zebrita restaurant, lodging and adventure tours. This place is located in a family finca where in a small part it is for highland coffee plantation, recognized worldwide. We have a small industry for coffee process in order to advertize it directly, together with other 6 small producers from the community.

Most part of the property is natural forest where many water sources come from. It is our commitment to protect this natural resource since it is the main attraction for the adventure sports. In its topography, Quebrada San Miguel goes through a rocky canyon, where 10 waterfalls were formed through 900 meters. This originates wonderful conditions for the practice of rappel in the canyon. This happens in constant contact with nature, since during that descent through the forest there is not any construction, just trees, short plants, the sounds of the birds, and the silent movements of the morph butterflies and many other multicolored species and the smooth movement of the clear water while it descends.

Zebrita Restaurant

Our visitors will find a very typical menu, taking into account the best countryside traditions, due to the family background. El Mirador is built over an impressive rock, with a marvelous view to the mountains and to the valley. It is open Saturdays and Sundays; weekdays with previous reservation.

Our sport of adventure: Rappel and/or Canyoning

Rappel is a low impact sport to the environment, because it does not modify it. It consists in descending by the rocky walls, next to the waterfalls, by the use of special techniques with ropes and extreme security this is a complete contact with nature and the adrenaline produced because of the challenge the gravity laws.

Security plays an important role in this risky sport. We provide the equipment, knowledgeable guides, and insurance for any danger.
