Highlights

The Chimborazo climb is a private 2 days tour to summit the Chimborazo. With this trek, you will reach the closest point to the sun from the center of the earth!
The goal will be to reach the Veintimilla Summit (6,227 m.a.s.l.) and the Whymper Summit (6,263 m.a.s.l.), always accompanied by a professional guide and all the proper equipment to climb the summits of the Chimborazo volcano. Best guides and equipment when you need it the most!

Itinerary

DAY 1 Riobamba - Chimborazo Reserve - Carrel Refuge
  • Riobamba

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    The guide will be waiting for us at the Riobamba office at 10 am. Once we are all together, we will load the equipment in the 4x4 vehicle and head to the Chimborazo Reserve in a one-hour drive. Get ready to enjoy the incredible views that this landscape will give us.
  • Carrel Refuge

    12 hoursAdmission Ticket Included
    We will follow the road toward the Carrel Refuge, located 4,850 meters above sea level. Here we will spend the afternoon acclimatizing and being prepared for the Chimborazo climb. In addition, our guide will give us a briefing to give us information about the route, safety rules, and the method of ascent by rope. It's time to have dinner, rest, and get ready for the ascent!

DAY 2 - Chimborazo summit.
  • Carrel Refuge

    7 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Ascent to the Veintimilla Summit 6,227 m. - After having rested for a few hours, it is time to start the ascent to the Veintimilla summit. We will start at 22:30 as it is safer and rocky, snowy, and icy roads will be waiting for us until we reach the rock formation of El Castillo at 5,350 meters. We will make the ascent along the glacier ridge, with steep slopes between 30 and 40 degrees and with some icy stretches of up to 45 degrees. After 7 hours of ascent, we will reach the Veintimilla summit. Objective achieved!
  • Mount Chimborazo

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Whymper Summit 6,263 m. - Once there, if we still have strength and desire, and if the weather accompanies us, we can continue the ascent to the summit of the Chimborazo volcano. After one more hour of ascent, we will reach the Whymper summit, and therefore, at 6,263 meters of altitude, the farthest point from the center of the Earth!
  • Riobamba

    4 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Descent to Carrel Refuge - We will enjoy the incredible views of the Ecuadorian sky and when we are ready, we will begin the 3 to 4 hours descent to the Carrel Refuge. Once there, the 4x4 will be waiting to take us back to Riobamba. After 2 intense days, we will have put an end to the Chimborazo climb.
