Quilotoa Lake - This stunning lagoon is nestled within the crater of the volcano sharing its name, located in the Chugchilán mountain range. Its waters are notably mineral-rich, which inhibits fish and bird life.
The adventure begins early in the morning, as the destination is nearly three hours from the capital. Throughout the journey, travelers will enjoy breathtaking landscapes until reaching the starting point at the lagoon’s viewpoint. From there, a descent of approximately 45 minutes will lead to the shores of the lagoon. Along the way, the magnificent Andean scenery surrounding the lagoon can be admired. Once at the shore, kayaking is an optional activity.
After spending ample time at the lagoon, the return journey, which takes about two hours, will commence, taking necessary precautions for the ascent, and eventually returning to Quito.
The service is private, and all tours are conducted by a tourism professional who is also a certified guide.
