In the heart of the Andes, where mountains touch the sky, Lies a hidden gem, a lagoon that will make your spirit fly. Quilotoa, they call it, a name that dances on the breeze, A crater lake of wonders where nature finds its ease.

Laguna Quilotoa is both serene and grand, Going down to the lake was easy. The hike back up was a challenge as the altitude unwinds. As it unfolds, a masterpiece in its own right, Turquoise waters shimmering, reflecting the sun's golden light.

The Quilotoa Lagoon, also known as Laguna Quilotoa, is a stunning crater lake in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador. It is part of the Cotopaxi Province and is situated within the Quilotoa Caldera, a collapsed volcano.
