Early the next morning I headed out of Isinlivi to trek four hours to Chugchilan. The weather was kind and the walk was spectacular. The trek was very up and down, this area is riddled with steep sided canyons, and after each ascent I was greeted with a new vista.
Arriving at the hostal in Chugchilan for lunch I then checked out how to visit the highlight of the Quilatoa loop, the Quilatoa crater lake. The consensus was to take the 4am bus up to the crater, a two hour ride, then walk fours hours back.
