Trip Info
Our favorite hike…it starts near the highest elevation in the park and was mapped and designed to take us downhill for 95% of the trek. You will see a series of lakes and mountains that continuously change in appearance, showing off how biodiverse this park is.
We will pick you up from your hotel/home in Cuenca. The drive to our start-point is roughly 40 minutes. We then arrange for our vehicle to be waiting at the end of our hike, where you will have an option to enjoy dinner at a restaurant that features fresh trout. Or, we can bring our guests to Dos Chorreras, a highly praised restaurant and chocolatier. Then we will bring you back home.
For those wanting to enjoy a full day experience and then indulge in relaxation afterwards, we also offer a visit to the thermal spas in Baños-Cuenca.
Your adventure awaits!
