Otavalo – 
After having breakfast we take a taxi for 2 USD to the nearby waterfall “Peguche”. At this time there is not much going on yet, the sellers at the small booths at the village square still look at us rather sleepy.
The entrance to the waterfalls and the surrounding nature park is free. But you are welcome to leave a small donation. The way to the waterfalls is rather a short walk: The way is partly paved, there are several ways to the left and to the right. At one point there seems to be a kind of holiday camp for young people.
