Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Zaruma?
The best area to stay in Zaruma is the historic centre, particularly around the Parque Central.

This area is the heart of Zaruma, known for its well-preserved historic architecture and narrow, winding streets. It's very walkable, with the main square, Parque Central, serving as a focal point surrounded by the imposing Mother Church of Our Lady of Carmen and the Municipal Palace. You'll find most of the town's restaurants, cafes, and local shops concentrated here.

Couples looking for a romantic and culturally rich experience will find the historic centre ideal. Staying here means you're just steps away from the town's main attractions, allowing for leisurely strolls through charming streets and evenings spent enjoying local cuisine. The views from many of the historic buildings overlooking the surrounding mountains are also a big draw.

For those interested in exploring the region's mining heritage, staying in the historic centre offers convenient access to local museums and guided tours to nearby gold mines.
When is the best time to go to Zaruma?
The best time to visit Zaruma is during the dry season, which typically runs from May to December.

During these months, you'll experience consistently pleasant weather with less rainfall, making it ideal for exploring the town and its surrounding areas. The clear skies also offer better views of the Andean landscape. This period is particularly good for those who enjoy outdoor activities and sightseeing without the interruption of heavy showers.

For travellers looking to experience local festivities, visiting in July is an excellent option. Zaruma celebrates its cantonisation anniversary on 26th July with parades, cultural events, and traditional music, providing a wonderful insight into the local culture. Similarly, the Fiestas de la Virgen del Carmen in mid-July also offer a vibrant cultural experience.

If your priority is comfortable walking and exploring the historic centre, the dry season ensures you can enjoy the cobblestone streets and architectural beauty without needing to worry about rain.
