We will go to the railroad station in “Alausi” located 160 km north of the city of Cuenca; on the route taken, we will see unforgettable Andean Landscapes, and then arrive in San Pedro de Alausi. Here we begin a dramatic decline of 1h 30min aboard a train, which goes by the famous “Devils Nose” mountain; this railroad was recognized as one of the world’s greatest engineering achievements of the 20th century.
