Quito Sights

  1. TelefériQo

    Quito's newest attraction - and a mind-boggling one at that - is the telefériQo, a multimillion dollar sky tram that takes passengers on a hair-raising 2.5km ride up the flanks of Volcán Pichincha to the top of Cruz Loma. Once you're at the top (a mere 4100m), you can hike to the summit of Rucu Pichincha (4680m), an approximately three-hour hike for fit walkers. Don't attempt the hike to Rucu Pichincha until you've acclimatized in Quito for a couple days.
