Here you can observe the abundant birdlife of the area, such as: Andean Gull, Andean Teal, Ducks, Coots, Falcons and possibly the endangered Andean Condor. Continue the journey downhill following off-roads into the valleys to observe some of the local farming. This evening will be spent at a traditional Colonial Hacienda now open for guests.

Day 2: Illinizas Twin Peaks

After breakfast, depart by jeep to Pastocalle, located at the foothills of the Illinizas Twin Peaks. Start biking through the paramo, down a dirt road that leads to the valley and the small town of Chaupi. Along the way, enjoy excellent views of the Illinizas, Corazón, Sincholagua and many other surrounding volcanoes. Continue the journey following the old train tracks passing old train stations, farmlands and small colonial towns. Return to Quito in the afternoon.
