Cerro Puñay is probably the best place place to watch sunsets in Ecuador, it almost always has a cloud inversion and you can see Chimborazo and El Altar volcanoes, and Sangay's volcano eruption clouds.

Cerro Puñay is a must-visit destination for those looking for outdoor adventure in Ecuador! It's a 2-day trekking tour and explores the longest stepped pyramid in the world! Begin your journey at the base of the mountain, set at 2548 meters above sea level. From there, hike up to 3270 meters in approximately 3 hours and feel yourself in the clouds. After an amazing sunset moment from the viewpoint, enjoy a warm dinner, sleep comfortably in a tent, and have a mountaineering breakfast before returning back home with memories that will last you a lifetime.
