Your adventure includes a visit to the Limpiopungo Lagoon, a serene spot that reflects the beauty of Cotopaxi and its surroundings. Here, you can take in the panoramic views, snap stunning photographs, and soak in the tranquil atmosphere. For those seeking an extra thrill, an optional hike up to the Jose Rivas Refuge at 4,800 meters offers a closer look at the volcano’s glacier and a taste of high-altitude trekking.
