Antisana es un estrato-volcán en los Andes del norte, Ecuador. Es el cuarto volcán más alto de este país con una altitud de 5.753 metros y se encuentra al sureste de su capital, Quito.
Este volcán significa una de las escaladas más técnicas de los Andes ecuatorianos. Es bastante remoto pero ofrece algunas de las escaladas más interesantes de la región. A diferencia de las otras principales montañas en Ecuador, el Antisana no tiene refugio: se necesita el campamento base para pasar la noche.
Será una fantástica ascensión de 2 días al cumbre de Antisana. Aquí he preparado un itinerario para informarte más detalles:
DÍA 1: Quito / Reserva ecológica Antisana
Salimos de Quito a las 9:00 am en nuestro transporte privado, llegando al pueblo de Pintag al mediodía. Luego, conduciremos durante una hora hasta llegar al Campamento Base Antisana. Instalaremos nuestro campamento allí y descansaremos. Por la tarde, haremos algunas prácticas glaciares. Aprenderemos algunas técnicas básicas de manejo del equipo de escalada (como crampones, piolet y cuerdas). Noche en el campamento base.
DÍA 2: Cumbre de Antisana a 5.740m / Regreso a Quito
¡Y aquí estamos en el día más esperado! Vamos a la cumbre del Volcán Antisana. Dejaremos nuestro campamento a las 23 pm para iniciar la escalada durante unas 6 horas.
Después de pasar una zona agrietada finalmente estamos en el último tramo vertical positivo antes de la cima. Es una sección difícil de entre 38-45 grados hasta el final abrupto de esta escalada. Una vez en esa altitud podemos admirar la mayoría de los picos ecuatorianos y, al oeste, un mar de nubes sobre la selva amazónica. El descenso nos llevará unas 2 horas.
Es una experiencia que no te puedes perder. Contáctame para más información sobre lugares, reservaciones y próximas salidas. ¡Planifiquemos tu ascenso al Antisana! Estaré encantado de ser tu guía de montaña.

Fernando is a very experienced guide, with a great know-how in hiking high altitudes. The hike was demanding, so having a guide who was responsible and knew how to coach us while climbing was extremely important. We could not make it to the top, but the adventure was absolutely worthy!

Had a really great trip climbing in the Ecuadorian Andes. Fernando is a very capable guide. His true passion is big, technical climbs and he is a less excited about the more basic acclimatization hikes. The lodging and food in El Chaupi is great. There was not a ton of advanced communication and the pre-trip prep each night before was a little sparse and lacking in detail. There was limited flexibility if we wanted to adjust the itinerary (such as including an extra walk to a lagoon, ect). Overall, a good experience.

There were no briefings about the upcoming itineraries, I’d mostly find along the way, what’s the plan. He would make changes to his moods. He didn’t inform me in adavance about the specifics of each refugio/ lodge/ camp concerning the distance from car, electricity and would make fun/made snide comments “your choice” of the things I packed at the aftermath, but offered no guidance. I have read from others that he is very knowledgeable and explained a lot- that hasn’t been my experience, he surely is an apt mountaineer, but he wasn’t actively explaining or showing things, he was just always on his cellphone. He could be very short, abrasive and inpatient. At one time even another climber intervened “to save me”

Our guide Fernando was great to adapt the trip for our two little girls. A great experience it was fir us all. Thank you.

Fernando and Sergio are very good guides, not only very safe and motivating in the mountains, but very nice between the climbs. And i have learned a lot too about the culture in the country. Their hotel near Illniza is perfectly located, safe and you are received as if your were at home with Fernando's family. And they will take care of everything, so you just have to concentrate yourself on the climbs. Thank you!
