As well as all of the guided adventure sports happening in Banos, there’s two less extreme, but equally amazing spots to check out – Casa De Arbol and La Ruta de Cascadas.

 

La Casa Del Arbol (The Tree House) is two thirds of the way up Tungurahua Volcano and lean over the valley with a swing beneath that flies out amongst the clouds.

This is the swing of all swings.

Halfway through the 60km round trip of the Ruta de Cascadas (Route of the waterfalls)

There is a road built into the side of the cliff face that spirals down to the bottom of the waterfall.

Halfway down.

Making our way down we saw the rope bridge that lay ahead.

Ben walking across the somewhat secure rope bridge cautiously.

Al having a rope bridge party.

Almost at the base of the waterfall.

Crawling through the path ( this is a real path), to get to the bottom.

And we’re there.

Pondering how we’re going to make the 30km ascent back to the town on the bikes.
