Quijos River Trip


DESCRIPTION


 

The Quijos is set to become Ecuador's premier white water trip with mile after mile of class IV rapids and spectacular jungle scenery. Expect to run more white water in a day than you would do in a week elsewhere.



ITINERARY

Itinerary

Depart from Quito at 06:30. You will drive to Baeza. On arrival you will be issued with wetsuits, life jackets and helmets. After a short drive to the put-in the trip leader will give a thorough safety briefing and conduct a swim test. Then you will split into groups for an intensive in-boat paddle practice with your guide. Once you set off you will get straight into the action but with some easier rapids to warm up. Along the way you will stop for a riverside picnic lunch. In the afternoon you will raft through the first canyons of the Quijos running big, technical rapids. At the end of the day you celebrate a fun day on the river with a few icy cold beers and return to Quito (approx. 19:30).
