About the Owner

I am Ludwig (Luy) Betalleluz After many years of having worked as a trekking guide in Colca Canyon I decided to establish in Cabanaconde in 2006. I chose Cabanaconde for its beautiful landscapes, quitness and mainly for plenty trekking posibilities. I open the Hostel in a rented house for many years till I bought it and build it in 2010. Pachamama Home was made mainly to encourage trekkers to explore Colca Canyon on their own and get a different experience which it involves more the local economy. I have also opened new trekking routes and biking tours in the area. Nowadays, I do photography and shared my photos in the hostel. I am also in charged of doing the bike tours and new trekking options.

BOOKING REVIEWS 2020:
Clean and nice sized bedroom with a comfy bed with plenty of duvets. Also a clean bathroom with lovely hot water showers and great water pressure. What makes this place though are the staff with the service, advice and help they provide. Maps were provided with lots of detailed information about trekking and then you can discuss your preferred route with the staff to see if it's a good idea or there are better options. Dinners in the restaurant are also very tasty, I sampled the Mexican Pizza and the Salteado twice. Both were delicious. Cocktails available also. Too many Godfathers put me a day behind on my trekking plans
