We will start our adventure with a short hike to the glacier, then we will bike down the slopes of this magical mountain to reach the middle of the inter-Andean valleys. Later in the afternoon, we will be transferred to the slopes of Imbabura volcano to enjoy a cultural encounter with local people and learn their traditional way of living. Our accommodation for the night will be a homestay at different local families of the San Clemente community.
