Overview
In the heart of the majestic Sangay National Park, the roads wind their way to a dreamy place that rises out of the mountains, known as El Ozogoche. On the way, travellers can pass the ancient church of Balbanera and stop to contemplate the Colta Lagoon. In daylight, adventurers can walk the trails, enveloped in bird song and admiring the starlight at night. When night falls, stories flow among mountain friends, and when the sun rises, the sun's rays illuminate the beaches of Ozogoche, revealing its plant diversity. And so, the magic of the national park becomes an unforgettable experience, full of charm and wonder.
