Great day to the national park and throughout Cuenca and Turi. Excellent guide with lots of information.
We had great weather and enjoyed incredible views of the mountains and lakes in Cajas National Park.
We really enjoyed ourselves and got to see so much. The mountains, lakes, two great restaurants, and local food. Good exercise.
