Explore Our Permaculture Farm Before You Arrive

To help you understand the layout of our 7-hectare permaculture farm and hostel, we created an interactive Google My Maps guide:
El Zopilote Permaculture Farm / Hostel – Virtual Map.

This detailed map shows:

All our huts, dorms, and communal areas
Trails, viewpoints, gardens, and forest zones
The pizzeria, reception, kitchen areas, Bushop, and workshops
Natural features, water systems, and permaculture designs
All access points and distances inside the property

The virtual map is the perfect tool to get oriented, especially since El Zopilote is built on a hill, surrounded by forest, and fully immersed in nature. With this map, you can easily visualize where everything is, plan your stay, and enjoy the farm with much more clarity.

We highly recommend taking a look at it before your arrival.
