What to Know About Cayambe

Key Facts

Cayambe is a canton located in the northeastern part of Pichincha Province in Ecuador. Situated approximately 70 kilometers northeast of Quito, the canton encompasses a diverse landscape that ranges from high-altitude páramo ecosystems to fertile agricultural valleys. The canton covers an area of approximately 1,188 square kilometers and serves as home to around 85,000 residents according to recent estimates. Cayambe is administratively divided into three parishes: Ayora, Cayambe, and Juan Montalvo, each with its own distinct character and communities. The canton takes its name from the majestic Cayambe Volcano, an inactive stratovolcano that stands at 5,790 meters above sea level and dominates the local skyline. This region is particularly renowned for its dairy production, especially the famous Cayambe cheese and biscochos (traditional biscuits), which have become culinary symbols of the area.
