We were disappointed. The place is beautiful no doubt but there were several issues we noticed. Things are not clearly labeled and there are no signs anywhere. We read reviews online of the guided tours but when we got there the prices were insane, such as $60 to take our group on a guided tour with 4 people. To me, it seemed like the focus was on the money and not the beautiful reserve. The grounds were maintained but it just seemed like there was little interest in trying to get our business. We go to national parks all over Ecuador and this is by far the most extreme pricing I have ever heard of. We left after a 3 hour drive to get there without doing any guided tour. We did find the main waterfall that you will see pictures of online and a 1.1km hiking trail but it was not what I was expecting. Maybe we didn't go through at the right spot but without any signs it made things very difficult and frustrating. My suggestion is to find a way to enjoy these tours as much as your tourists do. This is a beautiful place and it seems wrong that it would require so much money to give a tour or go on a hike. We left with the impression that no one there cared enough to take us on a tour unless they were getting some ridiculous amount of money. I understand that there may be economic issues at play here, but these prices will ensure that no one ever decides to come here, thus increasing these economic issues. Look around and find one other example of a government sponsored national park that charges these prices in our country... you won't find it. In order to get this government support people have to actually go there, and people need to know about it. If people never come, this place will never get the support that it really does deserve. I hope if I visit here again in a few years that things will be different, because this really could be one of the most beautiful attractions Ecuador has to offer...

La reserva protege los bosques húmedos y los bosques secos que rodean y cubren la cordillera de Mache Chindul en la Costa ecuatoriana. Los bosques húmedos pertenecen al Chocó, una región muy húmeda que se extiende desde Panamá hasta el noroccidente del Ecuador. Los bosques secos reemplazan a los bosques húmedos hacia el sur, desde los alrededores de Cojimíes y Jama, en el norte de Manabí; cubren la cordillera de Mache Chindul y la franja costanera del sur ecuatoriano y llegan hasta el norte de Perú. La reserva protege la laguna de Cube, una zona que en el 2001 fue declarada como un humedal de importancia internacional, tanto por la biodiversidad que allí se encuentra como por las importantes funciones ecológicas que cumple y los servicios ambientales que brinda a las poblaciones aledañas. Desde Quito. Se toma la vía Quito – La Independencia – Quinindé (227 km) o la vía Quito – Sto. Domingo – Quinindé (218 km). De Quinindé se va por la vía a Esmeraldas por 12 kilómetros asfaltados, hasta el punto que indica Km 80, de ahí se continúa hacia la “Y” de La Laguna. Los accesos a la reserva son:

La Laguna. Desde la “Y” de La Laguna se toma la vía hasta la laguna de Cube, un total de 17 kilómetros de carretero lastrado. En invierno existen problemas con la vía y es necesario vehículos todo terreno para pasar; en verano se llega en bus sin problemas.

Desde Quinindé se puede tomar la cooperativa de transporte Quinindé que sale cada dos horas con destino hasta la “Y” de La Laguna.

Dágola-Mono. Desde la “Y” de La Laguna se llega hasta la comunidad El Edén del Dógola, por un camino de verano de 21 kilómetros; en época de invierno solo se lo puede hacer a pie o a caballo. Se llega en vehículos particulares hasta 5 kilómetros antes de...
