In the morning we drive south through the Avenue of the Volcanoes to the base of the Cotopaxi Volcano, the highest active volcano in the world at 5,897 meters (19437 feet ). The National Park was established as an ecological sanctuary with excellent opportunities to soak up nature and learn about the importance of the importance of the paramo landscapes all around.
If the weather allows us we can take a walk up to the Refuge José Rivas to 4800m (15,748 feet). This height is considered to be equivalent to the highest point in Europe.
Optional lunch at Hacienda La Cienega, a traditional hacienda built in the XVII century. Return to Quito.
