Dinner included

Breakfast and departure to Cotopaxi National Park.
We will leave from Quito and take the road to the Andes and in only 1 hour approx, we will
arrive to Cotopaxi National Park.

The Cotopaxi volcano, an almost perfect snow cone that rises to 5,897 meters is unique in
the world and is perhaps, next to the Galápagos, the greatest symbol of our natural
geography recognized worldwide.
Thousands of climbers from all nationalities have achieved this peak and many others
dream of doing it. Because it is located in the center of the inter-Andean corridor and close
to several cities such as Quito and Latacunga, Cotopaxi National Park is one of the most
visited and where many people probably first touch snow.
The imposing Cotopaxi, one of the highest active volcanoes in the world, dominates the
landscape of the protected area, which also includes two smaller volcanoes close by;
Morurco (4,880 m) and Rumiñahui (4,722 m). Cotopaxi is located in an area called
"Avenida de los Volcanes"(Avenue of the Volcanoes), named by German naturalist
Alexander von Humboldt in 1802 referring to volcanoes of the central and northern
Ecuadorian highlands. The predominant ecosystem in the park is moorland, with its own
unique flora and fauna. Vegetation is principally scrub and small, low shrubs.
You will have the opportunity to visit the Jose Rivas refuge which is located at 4800mtr
Lunch included
After lunch will go to Alausí but along the route, you will have the opportunity to see the
volcanoes route and a small short indigenous kichwas town.
Dinner included

Breakfast and departure to take the Devil Nose Train, Ecuador’s train system are quite
remarkable. For the workers and engineers to have created a viable passage from Quito to
Guayaquil over a century ago with the technology available at the time is nothing less than

heroic. The track goes over rocky ravines, along raging rivers, through dense cloud forests,
and around mountains. But by far the most impressive section of the railway is the so-called
“Devil’s Nose”, a hair-raising trip down the rocky slopes of the Andes through some of
Ecuador’s most breathtaking scenery.
