Day 1: Visit to the Cotopaxi Volcano
In the morning we head south, through the “Avenue of Volcanoes” towards Cotopaxi National Park. We will visit the surrounding areas, called, “paramos” (Highlands). On arrival, we will visit the Limpiopungo valley. With favorable weather, we can spot the perfect cone shape of the volcano. In the afternoon, we will enjoy a local lunch at a nearby Colonial Hacienda, and afterward we will continue to Zumbahua, where Lake Quilotoa is located. Night in the region.
Day 2: Visit to Quilotoa Lake
After breakfast we will visit the lake “Quilotoa”, which is the most beautiful lakes in Ecuador. The 3 kilometers of the lake were formed by the collapse of its rock walls following an eruption around 800 years ago, and now it has become a wonderful lake. There, you have the choice of activities such as the descent on foot, 400 m below, to arrive at the foot of the lake (It is a little difficult, but it is worth it. You can rent donkeys, if you do not feel in shape to return to the starting point, at the very top of the mountain). It is also possible to rent kayaks on the lake, or simply relax on the edge of the volcano. In the afternoon, return to Quito.
