Asilo de la Paz is a 450 meter high hill that is found on Floreana Island, one of the first islands to be colonized by Ecuadorians. The hill attracts visitors from all over the world as it houses fun sites such as a historic pirate cave and a freshwater spring to bathe in.

The National Park Service manages the surrounding woodlands, and visitors can hike to the corral and see various species of tortoises that visit the Galapagos Islands. As visitors hike up the hill, they’ll come across flora native to the land such as plum orchards, tamarind, and various citrus fruits.
