This selection features the Tarabita cable car crossing the Nambillo River gorge, leading to a sanctuary of seven waterfalls. It includes specialized conservation sites like Las Gralarias and Nathaly’s garden, alongside the region’s famous bean-to-bar chocolate production at El Quetzal. The list highlights specific ecological attractions, from butterfly flight enclosures to high-altitude canopy zip-lines.

Mindo Waterfalls

Located within the Nambillo Cloud Forest Reserve, these waterfalls are primarily accessed via the Tarabita cable car that spans the river valley. The 'Santuario de Cascadas' features a network of trails leading to falls of varying heights, including the 26-meter La Reina. The area is characterized by dense secondary cloud forest, natural swimming pools, and high biodiversity typical of the Chocó-Andean corridor.
