## Cotopaxi volcano

Cotopaxi volcano is the most beautiful volcano in South America. It has a
perfectly symmetrical shape and a peak covered with a layer of iceberg. Recent
volcanic activity has stopped tourists' favorite but challenging ascents to its
peak. You can set up a tent around the volcano and enjoy the sunrise.

The main reason to visit Ecuador is this national park. Here you will find a
well-preserved dry tropical forest, beautiful beaches and in season you can go
on a boat to sea to watch the fish.

## Waterfalls near Banos

Under the active volcano Tungurahua you will find a spa town from where you can
head to the waterfalls. On a 20-kilometer journey through the Pastanza River
Valley you will find dozens of waterfalls rushing down the Andean slopes. You
can take the trip in the car, by bike or as a hiker.

## Andes near the Columbia border

alpine lakes, unique forests and thermal spas. Taste local specialties or visit
Colombia.
