Climb Chimborazo  2 Days.

With careful planning and preparation, you will be able to experience the thrill of standing atop Ecuador’s highest peak and conquering one of the most iconic peaks in the world.

Quito, the capital city of Ecuador, will be our meeting point. On the first day, we’ll drive from this point to the Carrel Refuge (4,800 m). Then we’ll take a short hike to the Whymper Refuge, located at 5,000 meters above sea level.

• Morning: Your adventure begins with an early departure from Riobamba or Ambato, Ecuador, to reach the Chimborazo Ecological Reserve. The journey to the reserve takes approximately 3-4 hours, depending on the starting point.
• Mid-morning: Upon arrival at the reserve entrance, complete any necessary registrations or permits before continuing towards the base camp.
• Late morning: Begin the trek from the reserve entrance to the base camp, situated at around 4,800 meters (15,750 feet) above sea level. The trek typically takes 1.5 to 2 hours and involves hiking through rugged terrain and high-altitude ecosystems.
• Afternoon: Arrive at the base camp, where you’ll meet your mountain guides and receive a comprehensive briefing on the ascent plan, safety procedures, and equipment. Take time to rest, hydrate, and enjoy a hearty meal prepared by your support team.
• Evening: As the sun sets, prepare for the ascent to the high camp. Load your gear onto pack animals or carry them yourself as you embark on a challenging hike to reach the high camp, situated at approximately 5,900 meters (19,350 feet). The ascent to the high camp typically takes 3 to 4 hours, depending on weather conditions and individual pace.
• Night: Arrive at the high camp and settle into your tent accommodations. Your guides will prepare hot drinks and a nourishing dinner to help fuel your climb. Rest and try to get some sleep, as you’ll be waking early for the summit push.

Take time to celebrate your achievement and soak in the panoramic views of the Andean landscape stretching out beneath you.
• Late morning: Begin the descent back to the high camp, retracing your steps along the same route taken during the ascent. Descending from the summit typically takes 3 to 4 hours.
