Taking a ride on a swing is a fun activity we all enjoyed as kids, but most of us don’t remember it as scary. You may change your mind about it after seeing the Swing at the End of the World, located in Ecuador.
This tourist attraction, for true adrenaline-junkies, is located at a tiny park at La Casa Del Arbol in Banos. It’s pretty easy to reach this spot by bus, but local tour companies also offer shuttles to this popular destination.
The swing is positioned 2,600 meters above sea level but don’t let that scare you. Photos make it look much more terrifying than it truly is since you’ll be actually swinging over a steep slope.
Gorgeous mountain views will make it seem like you’re at the edge of the world, but there are guides who can help you buckle up, push your swing, and take amazing photos.
If this experience still seems too extreme, La Casa Del Arbol is worth the visit on its own. Nature surrounding this tiny treehouse is truly stunning, and you can always go for a hike or enjoy some drinks at a tiny café on-site if you’re not in the mood for a swing.
