Lake San Pablo
Ecuador, Imbabura Province, Lake San Pablo
Description:
Lake San Pablo is the largest in Ecuador, it is located in the province of Imbabura near the city of Ovalo. It amazes with the riot of colors of the local landscape and stunning Ecuadorian landscape.
The first impression that is created is silence, peace and tranquility. The water is very cold, the surface is unusually smooth, and in the twisted haze of the mirror surface, the majestic volcano Imbabura is reflected. Small herons wander along the shore, who have long chosen this beautiful corner on the planet. If you are lucky, you can see a rare condor bird, famous for its size.
If you wish, you can visit the local Indians in their wooden huts. They will treat their delicacy made from guinea pigs. The latter just swarm underfoot, and the local children like to play with them. On the floor are spread colorful mats of reed, in large quantities growing on the banks of San Pablo.
On the lake you can ride a boat under sails, swim and go water skiing. Cozy restaurants serve local delicacies that are worth a taste.
