Overview

Step away from the hum of Quito and into the mesmerizing embrace of the Antisana Ecological Reserve, a mere 100km journey into the heart of the Andes. Here, adventure beckons on two wheels, guiding you through terrains that whisper tales of ancient times. From the verdant whispers of the upper Amazon at 1,200 meters to the staggering majesty of the Antisana Volcano, soaring at a breathtaking 5,758 meters, every inch of this land is a testament to nature's grandeur.
Dive into the legends, for "Antisana" in the age-old Quichua tongue means the 'Dark Mountain'. True to its moniker, this enigmatic volcano often shrouds itself in a cloak of clouds. Yet, on those rare, magical days when the heavens part, the sight of its glacier-adorned pinnacle will etch itself into your soul. And as you're lost in its beauty, cast your gaze to the skies. A ballet of majestic condors, spirited cara caras, and a chorus of avian wonders serenade you, capturing the essence of Antisana's untamed spirit.
