Andes Trekking & Climbing
If you would like to conquer Ecuador’s major peaks Cotopaxi and Chimborazo, this 15-day itinerary is the trip for you. We start with an acclimatization trek and the ascent of a lower peak, so that your body can adjust to the high altitude and you can practice the basics of glacier climbing.
