What we do

Our Project
Eco Truly Park is a beautiful Peruvian Pacific coast ecological, artistic community founded on Vaisnava principles, strategically located on Chacra y Mar beach, a district of Aucallama, in the province of Huaral, one hour by bus or car (63 km) north of the capital city, Lima.
We live together according to principles of non-violence, simple living and elevated thinking, and visitors can learn and experience how it is possible to live happily in harmony with nature, others, and themselves. We are looking for people that are basically open-minded and want to practice tolerance, compassion and patience.
Visit our Eco Village – Eco truly Park outside Lima city in a Pacific place close to the sea, before or after to go Cusco

The architecture and values of the community is in part inspired by Indian traditional teachings and lifestyle, and we are the first lively ecological educational center of Peru. We have inspired similar successful projects in neighboring countries such as Chile, Ecuador, Colombia and Bolivia.
Our community is strategically located in Chacra y Mar beach, a district of Aucallama in the province of Huaral, one hour (63 km) north of the capital city, Lima.
In the last 18 years we have developed a unique organic awareness cultivation and ecological program ran by an increasing number of members and volunteers. The community is 2.5 m above sea level and consisted previously of completely sandy , unworkable land. Today our community is visited by the population of Lima and international visitors, who are able to experience an alternative way of life. The surrounding area of the Huaral province has thus been influenced positively in terms of the ecological consciousness of its people.
Through recent professional studies, Eco Truly Park programs have become a model of sustainable alternative solutions for the extreme poverty of more than half of the Peruvian citizens (over 14 million people) living in rural and urban marginalized villages.
Nowadays, Eco Truly Park is also recognized as an important tourist destination by regional government and the Peruvian media, receiving over 75,000 visitors since it started 18 years ago. Please drop in anytime to, enjoy our ecological lodging (hotel), gardens and restaurant–our doors are always wide open and everything is very reasonably priced!

El Eco Truly Park es una hermosa comunidad ecológica, artística y auto sostenible. Donde Residentes y Voluntarios viven juntos basados en principios de no violencia el cual es un principio fundamental aquí y los visitantes pueden experimentar y aprender que es posible vivir felizmente en armonía con la naturaleza, con los demás y con todos en general.
La arquitectura y valores de la comunidad es inspirada en parte por las enseñanzas místicas de India. Hemos inspirado similares proyectos exitosos en países cercanos como Chile, Ecuador Colombia y Bolvia.
Nuestra comunidad esta ubicada estratégicamente en la playa Chacra y Mar, en el distrito de Aucallama en la provincia de Huaral , a 1 Hora (63 Km) al norte de la capital, Lima.
La comunidad está situada a 2.5 metros sobre el nivel del mar, donde desde una tierra completamente arenosa, se han logrado desarrollar programas únicos de cultivos orgánicos como también efectivas campañas de sensibilización ecológica gracias al esfuerzo de un creciente número de voluntarios, influenciando así positivamente la conciencia ecológica de la población en la provincia de Huaral, una de las zonas más contaminadas por agroquímicos en el país.
Adicionalmente, recientes estudios profesionales han demostrado que los programas desarrollados en el Eco Truly Park son modelos de soluciones alternativas sostenibles para la situación de extrema pobreza de más de la mitad de ciudadanos peruanos (más de 14 millones de personas) que viven en asentamientos rurales y urbano-marginales.
Hoy en día, el Eco Truly Park es reconocido como un importante destino turístico por el gobierno regional y la prensa peruana, recibiendo a más de 75,000 visitantes desde sus inicios hace 18 años atrás.
La arquitectura y valores de la comunidad es inspirada en parte por las enseñanzas místicas de India. Hemos inspirado similares proyectos exitosos en países cercanos como Chile, Ecuador Colombia y Bolivia.

Rewilding Retreat

â‹— 8 days of yoga, art and nature in the jungle â‹— Taught by Prianca Sharma and other Jungle Cats Close your eyes. Breathe deep… and listen…silence. Only the sound of leaves ruffling in the cool breeze; cuckoos and bumblebees; water trickling gently in the morning sun. So much of our life is spent chasing time, running after unfulfilling goals, exhausted from the continuous demands and distractions of Life in the Fast Lane. It’s time to Rewild ! We’ve put together a very special retreat to unplug and reroot into the depth of what keeps us alive – Nature. Yoga and meditation set the ground for stillness and observation; art and exploring of the jungle awaken our senses and rekindle the creative fire that burns in each of our souls! For a few days, the jungle will become your home, your wake and sleep will be rhythm by the sounds and silence of the forest. A precious moment to start – or continue – a journey within and recharge to better reconnect with the outside world. ― PROGRAM ― â‹— Yoga – Gentle Vinyasa Flow, Yin, Ashtanga, Sunrise & Sunset yoga â‹— Meditation – Morning Medidation, Mindfulness, Jungle Meditation, Practice of Silence â‹— Art – The zen of seeing- Drawing Meditations, Mud sculpture and foraged bush crafts. â‹— Bodywork: Massage, Bollywood Dance Class â‹— Ecology: Jungle walk & Ecovillage tour, Ecology talk â‹— Kombucha-making workshop â‹— Beach & Jungle trips – Cola beach, Cotigao Wildlife Sanctuary âśš Movie nights, Wilderfeast Jungle banquets, Live Music nights ― TEACHERS ― ⫸ Prianca Shharma (India) https://www.priancashharma.org/ Trained in Kaivalyadhama College of Yoga in Pune, India and nume
