Cuenca, with its almost 700,000 inhabitants, is the third largest city in Ecuador. It is located at an altitude of 2,500 meters above sea level, within a basin surrounded by gentle hills (hills that reach altitudes even above 3,000 metres). The city is an extraordinary combination of Andean and European culture. It offers everything you need for a regenerating break from the pedals. Don't miss the Pumapungo anthropological museum: it helps you learn more about Ecuadorian traditions and culture.
