About this trip

Once inside the National Park, we walk towards the refuge that is at 4800 m, here we will rest a bit to fill our energy.

Once this is done, walk a little further until you reach the glaciers, a total altitude of 5000 m. On the way back, we will stop at the refuge to take our well-deserved lunch, followed by a descent to the lagoon of Limpiopungo. 

We will return to the parking lot and take our way back to Quito.

The climate of Cotopaxi is unpredictable, so it was carried out the warm clothes with you.

My experience at Dolphin Lodge was incredible. The schedule was packed with lots of great activities. All food was included, even breakfast on the first day and lunch on the last day. We were lucky enough to get Jorge as our guide, if you can be in his group - DO IT! He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals, despite us being told that he was a newer guide and didn’t speak english. He spoke incredible english that was very easy to understand. He has great eyes for spotting animals on the boat and was so considerate to ensure that each person could see it before he moved on. He also offered to take pictures for people. On top of that, he was very funny!! My group loved him and he made our trip 💝 10/10 Jorge

Die vier Tage in der Lodge waren super!! Vor allem das Essen, die Guides ( Esmeralda und Elias) waren super!! Sie sprechen super Englisch und man muss kein Spanisch können um alles zu verstehen! Wirklich toll!! Esmeralda war so nett und zuvorkommend. Außerdem hat sie alle möglichen Tiere gefunden, unter anderem eine Anakonda 😍😍😍 Einfach toll gewesen!!

These multi tours really enhanced my Ecuador experience. Such beautiful and diverse country, with interesting stops besides the main focus, and really great restaurants for lunch. The guides were cheerful and knowledgeable. I'd highly recommend these tours!

The tour to Cotopaxi had its highlights and downsides. On the positive side, the guides and driver were very friendly and attentive, and the place itself is absolutely stunning. However, it’s important to note that the views depend heavily on the weather, so you might not get the full experience if the skies aren’t clear. Unfortunately, a major downside was the condition of the bikes provided for the downhill ride. The bikes were in terrible shape, with loose parts, bad brakes, and overall poor maintenance. It felt unsafe to use them, and it’s concerning that the company allows people to ride downhill with such equipment. This really put a damper on the experience, as safety should always be a top priority. If you’re considering this tour, I’d recommend confirming the bike conditions beforehand or skipping the biking portion altogether if they haven’t improved. The visit to Cotopaxi itself is worth it, but the biking experience needs serious attention.
