On the 3rd day of our trip through the Andes in Ecuador one of the most picturesque train rides of Ecuador is awaiting us - we board the very luxurious Tren Crucero (which runs from Quito to Guayaquil) in Riobamba to enjoy a breathtaking journey.
Before we get to drive along volcano crater we are stopping in Guamote to visit one of the largest indigenous markets in South America. Afterwards we are boarding the train again for a great ride along the volcano Bola de Oro to Alausi.
During the last stretch of the route we are descending along the Devil's Nose down to the jungle in Bucay.
As part of Team Germany aka #TeamDe I'm exploring the Andes region in Ecuador (La Sierra) within the Feel Again Project. In this project 18 artists from 4 different countries are exploring the 4 different regions of Ecuador.

The Devil's Nose Train Ride
A video from the point the train had to reverse down the mountainside until it stopped and resumed going forward.
Nariz del Diablo
Nariz del Diablo (the Devil's Nose) is a historic train ride in the central highlands of Ecuador. This footage from 2003 shows the ride when it still ran all the way from Riobamba to Alausi over 4 hours, and you could lurch on the roof. (It now only runs 45 minutes from Sibambe to Alausi, and you can no longer ride on the roof due to two fatalities.) 2500 workers died during the construction of the line in the late 1800s, in particular at the Devil's Nose itself, which many felt was cursed.

Devil’s Nose (Nariz del Diablo) Train in Alausí | Ecuador Vlog 08
We drove from Cuenca to see two of the most famous train routes in Ecuador - La Nariz del Diablo (the Devil’s Nose) at Alausí and El Tren del Hielo at Urbina. These trains show off some of the most impressive scenery of the Andes and are really worth the trip.
At the Urbina station we caught up with Baltazar Uscha, the “ultimo hielero” or the last iceman of Chimborazo. Mr. Uscha, and the contributions that he has made to Ecuadorian culture and tourism, are well known in this area.
