Things to do in  Baños

Perched at the foot of an active volcano and surrounded by lush mountains, the Ecuadorian town of Baños is the place to be for travelers looking to satisfy an appetite for adrenaline. Though Baños takes its name from its thermal hot springs, the list of things to do in Ecuador’s adventure capital doesn’t stop at soaking—you can swing into the cloud-covered abyss at the Casa del Arbol (nicknamed the “Swing at the End of the World”), hike along a route that features seven waterfalls, go rafting in the Class IV rapids of the Pastaza River, and much more.
