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.
