This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

Climb Chimborazo, Ecuador’s highest mountain and one of the most iconic volcanoes in the Andes, on a private 2-day expedition designed with safety, acclimatization, and personalized guidance in mind. Led by certified mountain guides, it includes private transportation, technical mountaineering equipment, meals, accommodation at Chimborazo High Camp, and national park permits.

Unlike a standard hiking tour, this is a real high-altitude mountaineering expedition. The climb is physically demanding and depends on weather, mountain conditions, and each traveler’s acclimatization. Our priority is to provide a safe, professional, and organized experience while giving you the opportunity to attempt one of Ecuador’s most unforgettable summits.

This is a high-altitude mountaineering expedition. Summit success is not guaranteed and depends on weather, mountain conditions, each traveler’s acclimatization, physical condition, and safety decisions made by the guide. Safety is always the priority.

    DAY 1: Quito – Riobamba – Chimborazo High Camp We will pick you up from your hotel or preferred location at 9:00 AM and begin a scenic 3-hour drive south through the Ecuadorian Andes to Riobamba, where we will stop for lunch. After lunch, we continue for about 1 hour to the Chimborazo Wildlife Production Reserve. There, we complete the registration process, prepare our technical equipment, and start the ascent to Chimborazo High Camp, which takes approximately 1.5 hours. Once at High Camp, we settle in, review key safety instructions, and enjoy the incredible mountain views. Dinner is served around 5:00 PM. Afterward, we prepare our gear for the summit attempt and rest early. We wake up around 11:30 PM, drink hot tea, finish dressing, and begin the climb near midnight.
  • Volcan Chimborazo
    DAY 2: Chimborazo Summit Attempt – Return to Quito Altitude: 6,268 m / 20,564 ft The ascent begins around 12:30 AM, depending on weather and mountain conditions. With your certified mountain guide, you will begin the summit attempt, which usually takes around 6 hours. If conditions are favorable, you may reach the summit around sunrise and enjoy breathtaking views of Chimborazo and nearby volcanoes such as Tungurahua, Cotopaxi, El Altar, Sangay, and more. After a short time at the summit, depending on weather and safety conditions, we descend to High Camp, which usually takes around 2.5 hours. There, we have breakfast, pack our equipment, and descend for about 1 hour to the parking area, where our private transport will be waiting. We then drive back to Quito and drop you off at your hotel or preferred location. Summit success is not guaranteed and depends on weather, mountain conditions, acclimatization, physical condition, and guide safety decisions.
