Very different climate . Beautiful trees and fauna. Our guide Wilson is very knowledgeable about the different species of plants and birds. He is also well versed in the history of the park .
Xavi was an excellent guide who picked us up and dropped us off at our location. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history, plant life and geography of the area. I would highly recommend this tour and guide if you want to experience a taste of the National Park and a short hike to appreciate its beauty!

Adrián took my husband and I to Cajas National Park and we had a great time. He knew a lot about the park and had many things to share. He was very patient with me and assisted me over some rocks and mud more than once. I would definitely recommend this company and especially Adrian if you wish to go anywhere. Thanks again Adrian! Diana and Greg

The landscape is like nothing I’ve ever seen before. We were told to go in the morning, however we could only book an afternoon due to our schedule. We were glad we did! No one was there. Though it was cold and cloudy, we enjoyed the 1.5 hour hike around one of the lakes. Adrian our guide was very knowledgeable about the park. Be prepared. It’s 13,000 ft above sea level and the weather is very different than Cuenca.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you enjoyed the unique beauty of the landscape and had the chance to explore the park with Adrián’s knowledgeable guidance. It sounds like the quieter afternoon made your hike even more special. We also appreciate your helpful tips for future travelers about altitude and weather. Team Cuenca Bestours
