Description

At the designated time, we'll meet at Plaza Foch in Quito, where we'll begin a hiking route to some of the most impressive waterfalls in Ecuador.

After providing safety guidelines, we'll take the Ecovía bus to Playón de la Marín, then use public transportation to reach Loreto.

From there, we'll embark on an approximately 40-minute hiking route through the Ecuadorian highlands. Along the way, we will share insights about local customs and traditions.

Upon reaching the Tres Cascadas ('Three Waterfalls'), we will learn about their significance. A delicious picnic lunch will follow this stop.

Refreshed, we'll descend through the canyon to find the first waterfall after a 30-minute walk through a small mountain forest. You can also take a dip in the refreshing water at the third waterfall, with free time allotted for photos and relaxation amidst the scenery.

The tour concludes as we return to the starting point, where transportation back to Loreto will be available. We will then use public transportation to return to Quito, totaling approximately 6 hours for the experience.
