Cerro Puntas, located near Yaruquí, Pichincha, Ecuador, is a mountain offering hiking opportunities. Accessibility can be challenging due to steep terrain, making it unsuitable for those with mobility issues. A guided visit is recommended, especially for inexperienced hikers, to navigate the trails safely and learn about the local flora and fauna. Hiking is possible year-round, but the dry season (June-September) typically offers the best conditions with clear skies. The cost is low, as there are usually no entrance fees. A typical visit, including the ascent and descent, lasts approximately 4-6 hours. Be prepared for high-altitude conditions and variable weather.
