Quito
50 minutes
The adventure starts departing from south east from the Quito city. After several minutes of traveling we reach out a small neighborhood that contrasts with the big city since it is a quiet place where people get income from small businesses and agriculture. Continue driving in the middle of the parish town to access in a sinuous sandy road. See green pasturlands, burley fields, livestock and Andean Cowboys that begins their work day.
