My name is René Suter. When I travelled through South America for the first time in 1987, San Agustín already fascinated me a lot. In 1994, I moved from Switzerland to this charming village. Step by step, I constructed the Finca Ecológica El Maco.

Finca Ecologica El Maco is a unique combination of farm and hotel, located in San Agustin Colombia (1700 m a.s.). Staying with us, you will live in unique ecological cabins and you'll be part of our little farm with its own cows, chickens and dogs. If you wish, you may cook by yourself (we sell our ecological products such as yogurt, milk and bread to our guests for little money and we also have a small guest-kitchen) or you may enjoy our specialities in our restaurant.

San Agustin is famous for it's archaeological park, one of the most important archaeological sites of the continent and UNESCO world heritage. The region was inhabited by a mysterious civilisation which left behind several hundred freestanding monumental statues carved in stone, as well as a number of tombs. This as well as the beauty of the unspoiled vegetation, caused by the mild subtropical mountain climat, attracts travellers from all over the world. Be it riding horses, trekking, river-rafting or archaeology, San Agustin is one of Colombia's best adventure destinations. By the way: Colombia´s best coffee is grown in San Agustin and served in El Maco for free!
