Yanacocha Reserve is a cloud forest located just outside of Quito, Ecuador. It covers an area of approximately 1,000 hectares and is considered one of the most important birding sites in South America, with over 300 bird species recorded within its boundaries. The reserve is also home to several endemic bird species, such as the Black-breasted Puffleg, the Gray-breasted Mountain-Toucan, and the Tanager Finch.

As the tour continues, we venture further up into the Andean moorlands, where the park offers unparalleled views of Antisana, Sincholagua, and Cotopaxi volcanoes on clear days. Short hikes allow you to explore the unique plant life and take in panoramic views of the grasslands, where you can observe fighting bulls and a wide variety of bird species and animals. This experience is truly unforgettable and should not be missed if you are a nature lover.
