Ecuador FUERTE Cayambe and Chimborazo Express 6 Days / 5 Nights

Iliniza North, Cayambe and Chimborazo ascent

This program is a compact circuit of the two most climbed and highest mountains of Ecuador. We first climb the North Illiniza to 5,116 m, then Cayambe at 5,790 m. We then culminate with the summit of Chimborazo at 6,310 m, Ecuador’s tallest mountain whose peak is closest to the sun. This is a six-day trip with little recovery time, so it is recommended for climbers with enough experience that would like to focus solely on climbing glaciers back to back. With Cumbre Tours, there is the opportunity to extend the journey to Cuenca, the Galapagos, the Coast, or the Amazon.
