Hiking Volcano Corazon is a really fun day, technically not difficult, however, we implement some easy rock climbing techniques, it proposes magnificent views of Cotopaxi, Ilinizas, and their neighboring volcanoes. Corazon Volcano is also perfect for your acclimatization, The Corazon is part of the Western Cordillera and is located south of Quito and north of the two Ilinizas. It can be reached quickly from Quito and can even be done as a day tour if we leave very early. This trip may be an extension to climb Ilinizas
