Climb the beautiful Cerro Negro Hill, in the magnificent Mojanda Volcanic Complex located 85 Km north of Quito and 17 Km south of the indigenous town of Otavalo! With panoramic views of three turquoise crater lakes occupying its summit caldera, it’s a trek you don’t want to miss. No permits are required and camping is allowed on the mountain, with great spots for setting up a tent. Take the trail straight up to the summit for one and a half hours of steep-climbing adventure with stunning scenery along the way. Whether you’re a novice or an advanced climber, you won’t be disappointed with this remarkable hike! Camping here might be risky due to some reported robberies.
