Hostel Valhalla is owned and operated by Moggely. Mogge, a Swedish viking and his Ecuadorian wife Ely searched for and found the perfect parcel of land nestled within Ecuador's "Avenue of the Volcanoes" and built the hostel in 2004. Due to family contacts in and around Machachi, the number one mountain town in Ecuador, we are on very good terms will the local landowners who own the access rights to the mountains in the area. We will always try to make you feel like a family member and always ready to help with any problems or questions you might have. We consider this very important. As a Scandanavian run agency we are very careful to minimise our impact on the local environment through education and operate in the most ECO-friendly ways possible.
In addition to the hostel we are experts who specialize in Climbing, Trekking, Jungle, Galapagos Tours and designing tailor-made tours to suit the individual or group. Moggely is the biggest climbing and trekking operator in Ecuador and is the most highly recommended by the SAE (South American Explorers Club). All other tours are arranged with reputable agencies in their appropriate fields of expertise. If required we will pick you up from the Quito airport and take you to your chosen Hotel or Hostal. We always aim to offer competitive prices matched by a quality of service that is at least as good as our best competitors.
We also have rooms for rent in Quito at Moggely House on Calama between Amazonas and Juan Leon Mera in the heart of Gringolandia. These rooms are safe and secure, have 24 hour hot water, kitchen facilities, a plant-filled patio, and lounge area.
Hostel Valhalla has room for 45 people plus essentially unlimited camping on our 3.8 ha of property. Everything is new; having been completed in late 2004. It is a three story building with rooftop terrace and BBQ grill. All the rooms are comfortably appointed and a good size. Our location may be rustic but our hostel is not!
The building is located at approximately 3,500 meters of altitude in the countryside south of Machachi just outside the boundary of Cotopaxi National Park. Surrounding the hostel are numerous farms and 16 peaks for your visual delight. There are lots of good picture opportunities here.
All prices below are per person and do not include tax. They are set below the other hostels in the area for equal accomodations.
Kids under 6 years old are free and between 6 and 12 years old are half price. South American Explorer (SAE) members enjoy a 15% discount.
RESTAURANT:
Our restaurant is staffed throughout the day and features fresh, homecooked meals. With large groups come more cooks to keep pace with the orders.
The dinning area is heated by a wood burning stove and located on the first floor.
Because we buy only fresh ingredients, the menu is subject to change but what we list below is a good representative sample. Sometimes we light the rooftop grill and prepare tremendous amounts of barbeque as well. Everyone loves our food. Take a look.
