Displayed: times.This settlement is popular amongst adventure-seeking tourists. Travelers typically reach San Lorenzo by taking a train, known as an “autoferro”, from the highlands city of Ibarra, although road travel is also possible. San Lorenzo is a timber-exporting port that lies 18 km to the south of the Colombian border. From here, there is easy access to virgin beaches such as El Chaucal and San Pedro as well as to tropical forests such as La Chiquita where you can discover unique species of flora and fauna thriving along hiking trails.
