Parque Nacional Cajas is a stunning glacial valley, moors and forests located in Ecuador's Lake District. Once part of an important ancient trade route that connected the coastal region to the Andes mountains, today this mesmerizing park is teeming with unique wildlife and breathtaking natural beauty. Hikers will love exploring all the trails, searching for species like Alpaca, Andean Condors, humminbirds and Spectacled bears. Those who go further can access more remote areas, camping over night and fishing in pristine mountain lakes. It's the perfect place for those looking to get back to nature and experience fairytale-like atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
