History
Inkaterra Hacienda Concepción is an eco-lodge in the Amazon rainforest of Peru's Madre de Dios region, near Puerto Maldonado and the Tambopata reserve. Its Casa Grande was originally built in the 1950s by the Spanish doctor Arturo Gonzáles del Río as part of the "Fundo Concepción," a plantation and Amazon Catholic medical mission, and named for his wife, Concepción.
After the doctor's death, Inkaterra founder José Koechlin acquired the property in the mid-to-late 1970s and turned it into a scientific research station and environmental education centre. It opened to guests as the Inkaterra Hacienda Concepción lodge in 2010, with 25 stilted cabañas and a five-room Casa Grande set within an 819-hectare private reserve.
