This is a super famous place to visit, also known as the Swing at the End of the World located just 20 minutes driving from the main town.

Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Cascada el Manto de la Novia, 11 km on the road Baรฑos-Puyo, Banos 180250 Ecuador
Visit the route known as the โRuta de las Cascadasโ, or โWaterfall Roadโ. It lives up to its name. There are three tunnels on the way. These are for motor vehicles. If you want to survive the trip, do not enter these tunnels on bike. Along the way, youโll see tons of really nice waterfalls along the way such as Agoyan, Manto de la Novia and others. These include some cable cars and zip lines sending every visitor over a gorge with a pretty view.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Pailon del Diablo (Devil's Cauldron), Rio Verde - 18Km From Banos, Banos Ecuador
: Once getting on to the Pailon del Diablo, there are two paths to can take to see the waterfall which offer a different experience. The Lower path takes you down through an area that has a really nice jungle feel to it. Itโs a bit more of a hike, but youโll be able to get to a little suspension bridge that will take you across the river where you can get a really awesome view of the waterfall. If you want a shorter hike and more of a view of the actual waterfall up close, take the upper path. Finally afternoon continue through the last hill towards the great Amazon basin.

All the while your local guide will introduce you to all the hidden secrets and wonders of the jungle.
Then in the afternoon visit a local community who will share about the jungle way of life of Indigenous Families in this intimate encounter. A Kichwa woman, welcomes guests through an unobtrusive dialogue, we learn about their day-to-day lives, shows us how to make chicha, a typical beverage, and demonstrates the spiritual cleansing rituals still practiced today throughout the surrounding community. Finally, we participate in a blowgun target- shooting contest โ try your luck and see if you can hit the monkey target - but donโt expect to beat the natives!. Finally back to the Lodge.
