The centerpiece of this nature reserve is Antisana Volcano, Ecuador\u2019s fourth highest mountain; it towers 18,700 feet tall and is covered in massive glaciers that are hundreds of feet thick. Surrounded by \u201cp\u00e1ramo\u201d (a unique Andean grassland environment), Antisana is home to a wide variety of fascinating birds, including the Andean Condor, Black-faced Ibis, Silvery Grebe, and Carunculated Caracara. On the western entrance side of the reserve you can explore habitats of the higher reaches of the central valley where you might find Giant Hummingbird or Black-billed Shrike-Tyrant, while further east high elevation moorlands take over for better chances at Andean Lapwing, both species of cinclodes, and Paramo Pipit. Other fauna that make their home in the reserve include Puma, Andean Fox, White-tailed Deer, and even the elusive and extremely endangered Spectacled Bear, which we have seen with surprising frequency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Arriving to the Reserve is part of the experience, as the drive affords spectacular views of the surrounding area, including Quito in the distance below the enormous Pichincha Volcano. We plan to have lunch in a traditional local restaurant facing the rock walls where the Condors nest. It is important to wear warm clothes \u2013 preferable peelable layers \u2013 as temperatures can vary, but it can be very cold, especially if windy or rainy!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u200b<strong>Included:<\/strong> Bilingual bird guide, transportation, entrance fee, lunch at a local restaurant.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-157934600 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 0px 0px 1%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-247655722\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n  <div class=\"banner has-hover has-parallax\" id=\"banner-2086987638\">\n          <div class=\"banner-inner fill\">\n        <div class=\"banner-bg fill\" data-parallax=\"-3\" data-parallax-container=\".banner\" data-parallax-background>\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.birdecuador.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/0f9315_9fe6643faec744b396e091a8fdac548fmv2.jpg\" class=\"bg attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" \/>                        <div class=\"overlay\"><\/div>            \n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\n        <div class=\"banner-layers container\">\n            <div class=\"fill banner-link\"><\/div>            \n   <div id=\"text-box-1335072955\" class=\"text-box banner-layer x50 md-x50 lg-x50 y50 md-y50 lg-y50 res-text\">\n                                <div class=\"text-box-content text dark\">\n              \n              <div class=\"text-inner text-center\">\n                  \n<p>Antisana is home to a wide variety of fascinating birds, including<br \/>the <em><strong>Andean Condor, Black-faced Ibis, Silvery Grebe, and<\/strong><\/em><br \/><em><strong>Carunculated Caracara.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n           <\/div>\n                            \n<style>\n#text-box-1335072955 {\n  width: 60%;\n}\n#text-box-1335072955 .text-box-content {\n  font-size: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n    <\/div>\n \n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n            \n<style>\n#banner-2086987638 {\n  padding-top: 281px;\n}\n#banner-2086987638 .overlay {\n  background-color: rgba(104, 93, 75, 0.65);\n}\n<\/style>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_155662895 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_1409648043\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-394935408\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block;
