He offers a tourist circuit that connects the hills of San Juan, El Panecillo, Itchimbía and Guangüiltagua through his company "e-bike". The route is done on electrically assisted bicycles, which minimize the physical effort of pedaling and allow access to more places in less time. This project is an alternative to car traffic supported by the municipality.

EL CAP - QUITO ESCALADA
Read moreEl Cap is a climbing gym born from the meeting of two French-Ecuadorian couples who are passionate about this sport. The opportunities to climb in a natural environment are not very numerous around Quito, so Estelle and her friends opened this beautiful gym a few years ago. We meet there to learn, to train but also to spend good moments between sportsmen, sometimes around a glass (of fruit juice of course) in the bar of the room which also proposes excellent snacks. Sauna and shower complete the package. Highly recommended!
