Tarabita is a kind of metal cable car that moves over the precipice. In the past tarabitas were successfully used instead of bridges, ropes stretched between mountain peaks made crossing a canyon or river possible. Today, this unique mean of transport is popular among tourists, especially in the mountainous regions of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. A tarabita ride in a characteristic red basket is an attraction of the Llanganates National Park in Ecuador. When traveling you can admire the river Pastaza as well as unique rock formations and cascades.
