Highlights
  • Pujili - Early in the morning, we head south along the Avenue of the Volcanoes. If time permits, we will observe hills and volcanoes such as Pasochoa, Corazón, Cotopaxi, Los Ilinizas, among others. We will pass through the town of Pujilí, known for its predominantly indigenous population that still preserves their traditional way of life.
  • Canon del Rio Toachi - We will continue to the indigenous community of Zumbahua, where we will stop at the Toachi River viewpoint.
  • Laguna Quilotoa - We will proceed to the Quilotoa community, where our walk begins. Just a few steps away, we will reach the viewpoint offering a stunning view of the entire crater with a large turquoise lagoon and shades of green and blue. With our guide, we will descend to the shores of this beautiful lagoon, where you will have time to take a boat or kayak ride in its waters (price not included). After the fun, we will return and ascend to the starting point. Upon arrival, our guide will recommend and provide the necessary time for lunch.
