Adventure in Chimborazo: Hiking and Ascent from Quito
Chimborazo volcano, located in the Chimborazo Fauna Production Reserve, is the highest mountain in Ecuador and the closest to the sun. Its dreamscapes invite us to dream higher. Our tour begins in Quito and we will venture with our professional guide along the paths of the imposing Chimborazo. The summit of the volcano reaches 6310 meters, a challenge for mountaineering lovers. On our tour we will explore until 5100 meters above sea level, where the mystical lagoon Condor Cocha is located, surrounded by moorland flora and local fauna such as the vicuña. After this experience, we will descend to the parking lot and finish our tour in Quito.
Optional we can extend 1 more day and visit Quilotoa, Cotopaxi or Baños de Agua Santa.
