Return to the Quilotoa Volcano Crater Trekking.
This time we are going to go around the Quilotoa crater, a 3 kilometer wide caldera filled with water that was formed by the collapse of this volcano approximately 812 years ago.
We will start walking at the main viewpoint of the lagoon to turn it clockwise along a path of dirt and sand where we will overcome some ups and downs that make them challenging at 11 kilometers of the route, always accompanied by spectacular landscapes of the inter-Andean alley.
