OUT OF QUITO BIKING AND RAFTING TOUR

The top Rafting and Biking companies in Ecuador have joined forces to offer an incredible weekend just 2 hours from Quito in the Northwest cloud forest for biking, and then down further down towards the coast and into the rainforest area for rafting.

Day 1: Calacali/ Tandayapa

Early departure from Quito, toward the village Calacali which lies not far beyond the equator line where we will start our down hill bike ride from 2900m, passing by several haciendas and gorging on the stunning scenery that leads up to the quiet little village of Nono where time seems to have stood still. We will stop for a box lunch and continue on down the hill through a spectacular rainforest and on to a trout farm where we will relax and try our hand at fishing. Dinner and overnight stay in the nearby town of Mindo.

Route Specifics:

Type: Cloud forest
Level: easy medium
Distance: 52 km
Time: 5 hours

Day 2:
After an early breakfast we start our 30km run on the river Blanco class III & IV River. This is a great rafting course with some good white water and some excellent scenery to enjoy. En route we will have time to scout for birds and animals as they come down to the water to drink. Snacks will be given on the river and we will eat lunch at the end. Back to Quito

NOTE: We also offer a second 2 day option combining biking and rafting that involves a high altitude decent to Ecuador's most famous hot springs to soak away some of the newly exercised muscle aches. The following day we will raft the spectacular Quijos river class IV +, set in lush green surroundings and recently the hosts to the World Rafting Competition. After the rafting we will head back to Quito.
