Private Cotopaxi: Horseback Riding & Inca Trail Footsteps

Private Cotopaxi: 2h horse ride with stunning volcano & landscape views. Explore ancient Inca ruin foundations. Walk by Limpiopungo Lagoon or ascent to Cotopaxi refuge & enjoy a tasting of local food!
Begin with a pickup from your hotel in Quito and travel along the Avenue of the Volcanoes. As you travel, listen to your guide share the legends of these imposing Andean giants.

Arrive at the national park and enjoy a delicious tasting of local food and then get ready for a 2-hour horseback ride. Dress in the traditional attire of a Chagra (Ecuadorian cowboy), including a poncho (wool cape) and zamarros (leather chaps), to ride while enjoying spectacular views of the volcanoes, wildlife, and unique landscapes. Your journey leads to Salitre Pucará, the remains of an ancient Inca military outpost and the place where the ancient Inca Trail passed through. Though only a few stone foundations remain today, you will discover why this specific point was chosen as a strategic control point.

After your horseback adventure, take a walk around the Limpiopungo Lagoon, a natural mirror of the volcano or ascent to Jose Rivas refuge at 4860 FASL (15 500ft). Finally, our guide will suggest lunch spots before heading back to your hotel in Quito.

Horseback riding and tasting local food are included.
