Setting off on a hike in the Andes can seem like stepping into a fairy tale: a patchwork of small villages,
gurgling brooks and rolling fields and maybe a condor slowly wheeling overhead.
Your adventure starts in the Andes, where you will spend a couple of days acclimatizing in Quito, Ecuador's historic capital city before stepping into Agato — a fairy - tale land with condors swooping down over the villages,
gurgling brooks, and lush fields nestled between snow - capped volcanoes.
