TOURISM AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Fundación Natura has excelled in attracting tourists to Pasochoa without endangering the area. There are different trails of varying difficulty, each marked clearly with its own color, preventing getting lost and trodding over forest. An 8-hour trail even hikes up to Pasochoa volcano. Camping places are well defined too, and usually guides accompany the tourists. At the entrance there is a refuge with capacity for 20 people, a vivarium and an Environmental Education Center. One arrives to Pasochoa going south of Quito about 30 minutes, and taking a detour after Amaguaña.
