Banos de agua santa, Ecuador
Embark on an unforgettable adventure by embarking on a full-day private tour of the highest volcano in Ecuador, starting your journey with comfortable round-trip transportation from your accommodation in Baños. This exclusive experience allows you to ascend to the summit at an impressive elevation of 5,100 meters above sea level (approximately 16,600 feet), offering breathtaking views and unparalleled panoramic vistas.
You shall embark upon an exclusive and personalized excursion to the majestic Chimborazo Volcano in the heart of Ecuador. Ascending towards the summit via a meticulously planned itinerary, you will commence your journey at sunrise, departing from your accommodation at 8:00 AM. The ascent to the peak is expected to conclude within approximately two hours and thirty minutes, ensuring a smooth transition into the breathtaking landscapes of the highlands.
Upon reaching the top, you will experience panoramic views of the surrounding volcanic formations and serene valleys. A designated stop en route offers visitors the opportunity to admire expansive vistas and engage in gentle acclimatization exercises to prepare for further ascents.
Your guide, a knowledgeable local expert, will lead you through the challenging terrain, offering insights into the rich geological history of this remarkable mountain range. Your exploration culminates in the ascension of the Chimborazo Volcano, where you may choose between two distinct routes: a one-hour hike to reach the second refuge at 5000 meters above sea level (approximately 15,000 feet), or alternatively, ascend to the first refuge, where you will capture memories against the backdrop of towering peaks.
Following your ascent, a leisurely lunch will be enjoyed at a local family-run restaurant, allowing ample time for reflection and rejuvenation before returning to your starting point.
Throughout your journey, your dedicated guide will provide invaluable guidance, ensuring a safe and enriching experience amidst the natural splendor of the Andes. Upon arrival back at your accommodation, you may opt for either a direct transfer to Baños or a shuttle service to other destinations such as Riobamba or Cuenca, depending on your preferences.
