Sugarcane Plantation, Santa Lucia

Take a guided night walk to experience the sounds and sights of the forest in darkness.

Walk along the jungle path to the Umachaca River and then hike upstream to visit a beautiful waterfall (depending on the season and current you can even bathe and swim). Then continue along the pre-Inca trail used by the Yumbo people as a commercial route and learn about its history. You will spot tracks left by the elusive puma and shy wild pigs. The path opens to a lush meadow with fantastic views of the river where you will enjoy a picnic lunch (6-hour trip).
