Day 1

You will be picked up at your hotel at 8:00am before we drive for about 1:30 hours in order to reach the refuge of Pasochoa which sits on 2400m. which is where we start our hike. The choice of the route can be adapted to the desires of the tourits. The longest trek takes you all the way to the summit and takes approximately 7 hours (including descend). The firts part is very flat and offers a comfortable and easy walk. The second part is quite a bit steeper which is why good trekking shoes are required. During the hie we will be able to observe birds and enjoy the diversity of the plants. Once we get higher up we will have a beautiful view of Cotopaxi, Anzisana and Cayambe and all the other surrounding mountains. A shorter alternative route would take us about 4 hours. On this trail we will mainly get to see birds and the beautiful vegetation. We will return to Quito and drop you off at your hotel around 6:00 pm.
