Photogallery of pictures taken during journeys and expeditions to Mojanda Volcano Massive (Ecuador).
Mojanda is an inactive stratovolcano of the Eastern Cordillera in northern Ecuador. Mojanda is in fact a complex of two volcanoes which were active simultaneously. A summit caldera, which was produced by an explosive Plinian Eruption that marked the end of Mojanda activity 200,000 years ago, is occupied by three crater lakes: Caricocha (the largest), Yanakocha, and Warmikocha. Protection status was settled in 2002.
The high altitude grasslands and shrublands of Mojanda, which lie above the cloud forests, are collectively known as páramo. They are frequently grazed by cattle.
