Trek through misty, montane forest before the breathtaking expanse of Empakai Crater unfolds before you. The descent on foot into this volcanic caldera is a journey into a secluded, ethereal world. You’ll be surrounded by steep, green walls leading down to a vast, soda lake often dotted with thousands of flamingos. The profound silence, broken only by bird calls and the wind, and the staggering scale of this natural amphitheater make for a hiker’s paradise and a photographer’s dream.
