Is there a real hiking club around Quito? I want to hike without climbing the volcanos.

Hi,
I am also interested in hiking, and I found the following links in english:
http://www.saexplorers.org/member/membership-categorieshttp://www.proyectoaventura.com/
I also called to Municipio de Quito (292 0336) asking for information, they used to organize walkings (caminatas):
- Parque Ecológico Arqueológico Rumipamba.
- Ruta de Humboldt la Chorrera - Cruz Loma.
- La Gran Cascada del río Pita.
- Ruta Ecológica Metropolitana El Chaquiñán.
- Ruta Ecológica Metropolitana 5 de Junio Panecillo.
- Ruta El Cinto - Torohuco.
- Reserva Geobotánica Pululahua.
- Reserva Biológica Yanacocha.
- Parque Metropolitano del Sur.
They will send me up dated info, including activities for school holidays, as soon as I get it I will post it.
