1. 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.

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.

About Quito

Quito, capitale andine d'altitude de l'Équateur, a l'un des centres coloniaux les mieux préservés d'Amérique latine, cerné de volcans.

Le centre historique fut l'un des tout premiers sites inscrits au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, et ses églises, ses places et ses monastères sont spectaculaires. La Compañía de Jesús resplendit de feuilles d'or à l'intérieur, la basilique del Voto Nacional a des gargouilles en forme d'animaux équatoriens, et la Plaza Grande est entourée de la cathédrale et du palais présidentiel.

Top-ranked sights in Quito: Cotopaxi National Park, Basilica of the National Vow (La Basílica del Voto Nacional), Independence Plaza (Plaza de la Independencia).
