The Devils nose

Team Ecuador boarded a very early bus to Aluisa, where we would take the exhilarating ride down the Nariz de Diablo....The Devil's Nose.

Our conductor;


The ride consists of a one of the oldest train lines in the world that travels down the side of a mountain. After a stretch forward the conductor jumps off the moving train, switches the tracks and we start to back down the mountain, this continues for about 5 switches.


Even more exciting than the technicalities of the train, is riding on top!




The photo opps are countless!

The morning light was spectacular....
