Cotopaxi National Park is a protected Andean landscape in Ecuador, located around the snow-capped Cotopaxi volcano and extending across the provinces of Cotopaxi, Pichincha, and Napo. Its high-altitude terrain includes volcanic plains, grasslands, wetlands, and rugged mountain slopes. Cotopaxi, one of the world's highest active volcanoes, dominates the park and rises above the surrounding páramo.
