From Guamote we drive to the lakes of Atillo (1 hour). The first part of the trek (3 hours walking) takes us from 3600 meters to 4100 meters. At the viewpoint we have a beautiful view over both the lakes of Atillo and those of Ozogoche. In good weather we can even see the Sangay volcano. From here it is another three hours to descend to the village of Ozogoche. The landscape contains beautiful expanses of grass with small and large lakes.
Difficulty: average.
To bring: sun and rain protection, water bottle, photo camera, sturdy walking shoes, gloves and hat.
