The elevation of 4000 meters isn't easy to acclimate to ,but you get to see gorgeous views like this so it's a pretty fair trade off !!! El cajas is a hikers dream!!

I barely explored 10% of the park in a day but even in a day morning and evening can be a different experience depending  on the kind of weather.After a lot of reading that it's better to reach the park early as it gets rainy in the afternoon,I reached there at 11 but it was gloomy and the afternoon was bright and sunny 😀
Enroute to Cajas National Park from Guayaquil!!  We stopped at a random spot for 10mins and kept gaping at the clouds!!  I strongly suggest taking a taxi or private tour  from Guayaquil to Cajas for the breath taking views through the way!! Lot of buses go this route but you can't stop at some spectacular   locales and break into a jig 😀 #weekendgetaway
El Cajas national park is so dreamy and serene. You can run with the Llamas,stare at clear lagunas, hike for miles among clouds.. So many spots to sit and feel like you are on top of the world..The elevation can be hard for some to breathe but take it slow and you will luv this place. We  reached the park around 12 hiked a bit and headed for lunch, by 3 even though rain was predicted later clouds  cleared up and it was even more beautiful. I had 12 hours left in Guayaquil before my flight and El cajas was the best thing I have experienced in a while. #weekendgetaway
