Hacienda San Agustin de Callo

One and a quarter hours from the Ecuadorian capital of Quito stands the beautiful and little known colonial farmhouse of San Agustin de Callo.  Built on the site of an important Inca Palace, this working farmhouse offers today's discerning traveler an unrivaled glimpse into Ecuador's rich and colorful past.

Since the 15th century it has served as Inca fortress, Augustinian convent and temporary home for the French Geodesic mission - whose scientific results helped to change the shape of the planet. The Hacienda incorporates three distinct architectural styles, Inca, Colonial and Republican, the latter of which was added toward the turn of the 20th century.  

Now, you too can experience Hacienda San Agustin de Callo!
 

 
For those fortunate to reserve one of San Agustin's exquisitely furnished rooms, we offer a number of outdoor activities including trout fishing, horse riding, mountain bikes, visits to the famous local Indian markets of Saquisili, Latacunga and Pujili and walks in and around the Cotopaxi National Park.
