We only ask for your location when you tap the button, and your exact position stays in this browser. For the forecast, your browser sends a position rounded to about 1 km to WanderRank's server, which asks MET Norway, the Norwegian weather service. MET Norway doesn't see your IP address. The server keeps forecasts briefly, by rounded position only, so it doesn't ask twice. To stop abuse, it also counts new forecast lookups from each IP address over 10 minutes. That count stays in the server's memory only and doesn't include the position.
Closest pick From Baños, the closest side quest is Swing at the End of the World, a 5 min walk. The swing actually works: it arcs you out over a genuine canyon drop with an active volcano in front of you. Baños itself is a city of adventure: white water rafting, zip lines, canyoning, and thermal baths all within walking distance. The volcano is visibly steaming. <1 mi Swing at the End of the World 9.5 wow factor ~5 min walk · ⚡ Free Adventure · EcuadorThe swing actually works: it arcs you out over a genuine canyon drop with an active volcano in front of you. Baños itself is a city of adventure: white water rafting, zip lines, canyoning, and thermal baths all within walking distance. The volcano is visibly steaming. 49 mi Cotopaxi Day Hike & Refuge 9.5 wow factor ~2 h drive · 🥾 Scenic Hike · EcuadorCotopaxi's cone is textbook-perfect, a nearly symmetrical glacier-capped stratovolcano visible for 100km in every direction. At the refuge, you're walking on the glacier edge of an active volcano at nearly 5,000m. It's disorienting, breathtaking, and genuinely other-worldly. 50 mi Quilotoa Crater Lake Loop 9.8 wow factor ~2 h drive · 🥾 Scenic Hike · EcuadorThe loop passes through indigenous Kichwa communities where daily life is centuries old. The final descent to the crater rim (and the color of the water below) is genuinely shocking. Few tourists do the full loop. 461 mi Coffee Farm Immersion, Salento 8.5 wow factor Too far to drive today · 🎭 Cultural Experience · Colombia Colombia's coffee culture is genuine and alive, not a museum exhibit. The landscape is lush, the farms are immaculate, and the coffee you taste 30 minutes after picking is the freshest cup you'll ever have. Farm guides explain the difference specialty coffee makes vs. commercial farming. 464 mi Cocora Valley Wax Palm Trek 9.5 wow factor Too far to drive today · 🥾 Scenic Hike · Colombia The palms are absurdly tall (impossibly so), growing from green hills in the cloud forest as mist rolls through. The loop passes through secondary cloud forest with hummingbirds, spectacled bears (if lucky), and a hummingbird sanctuary. 573 mi La Piedra del Peñol, Guatapé 9.5 wow factor Too far to drive today · 👁 Hidden Viewpoint · Colombia The town of Guatapé below is Colombia's most colorful town, every building zócalo-decorated with 3D relief art. The combination of the climb, the view, and the town makes this an elite full-day trip. 772 mi Corcovado National Park Jungle Trek 9.8 wow factor Too far to drive today · 🦜 Wildlife · Costa Rica National Geographic called Corcovado 'the most biologically intense place on Earth.' Unlike every other Costa Rica park, getting here requires real commitment: boat rides, river crossings, and 3-day guided treks through truly remote forest. Jaguars are actually seen here. 895 mi Huacachina Sand Dunes & Sandboarding 9.5 wow factor Too far to drive today · ⚡ Free Adventure · Peru The oasis itself is surreal: a tiny village with a lake, palm trees, and bars ringed entirely by enormous orange dunes. Sunset from the dune tops with the lake below is extraordinary. The buggies are terrifyingly fast. Show 8 more Side quests and hostels here are curated, not live listings.
