Losas de Uchucay is a hidden paradise just two and a half hours from Cuenca, Ecuador. With its crystal-clear water and stunning scenery, this is the perfect spot for a day of relaxing and exploring. There are several hiking trails, varying in both length and difficulty, as well as swimming spots scattered throughout the area. The most popular trail runs along the river to a waterfall, where visitors can stop to take photos and enjoy the view. Afterward, you can visit the nearby towns of Gualaceo or Chordeleg to sample traditional dishes such as morocho and tortilla, and make a trip to Ecuagenera, the largest orchid garden in South America.
