The 60 lakes bike and trail trekking – 2 days

On day 1 we drive from Guamote by car to the paramos of Huantag (1 hour) at an altitude of 4100 meters. From here we take the bike and descend via small roads to the Atillo river. During the entire ride you can enjoy the wonderful landscape that the high mountains of Ecuador have to offer. After the descent by bike we continue our tour by car to the viewpoint of the lakes of Atillo. We set up camp in the village of Atillo.
On day 2 we leave on foot towards Ozogoche. 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.
