Hiking

Hiking in Ecuador is a favourite activity to be included in an Andes vacation. Whether you choose trekking through the cloud forest to discover a secluded waterfall, a hiking tour around one of the dramatic crater lakes in the Andean Mountains or a simple stroll along a deserted beach, there are many ways and forms to enjoy this activity whilst traveling Ecuador.

It is important to remember that you are at high altitude when hiking in the Andes, and therefore you should always drink plenty of water to help your body cope with the altitude and be prepared for any climatic conditions – both raincoats and sunscreen are a must!
