    Our project consists of an eco-educational Reserve, whose main objective is to preserve the biodiversity of the region and create a field of study to enhance the value of native medicinal plants.
    We have a house in the Reserve and we want to make an interpretation space for visitors and scholars in the future.
    The space is in San Jose, Ancasti, 15 Km. From Anquincila.
    The nature and calm abounds, the walks, baths in the river and hours of silence allow you to connect and enjoy a unique place.
