Descripción

Descubre la belleza de uno de los volcanes más majestuosos del mundo. Alcanza la cumbre del Cotopaxi junto con Illiniza, en este ascenso de 3 días.

Cotopaxi no solo es increíblemente bello, sino que también es uno de los volcanes más activos de la Tierra. También es el segundo más alto de Ecuador, elevándose a 5,897 metros.

En nuestro primer día partiremos temprano en la mañana desde Quito hasta llegar al estacionamiento La Virgen. A partir de ahí, comenzaremos la caminata hacia el refugio de montaña Nuevos Horizontes, desde donde nos equiparemos y nos prepararemos para escalar Illiniza Norte. Este magnífico volcán es la manera ideal de aclimatarse para el Cotopaxi. Y ofrece algunas de las vistas más deslumbrantes de la zona.

Después de una buena noche de sueño en el Andes Alpes Hostel, conduciremos a través de la Avenida de los Volcanes hasta llegar al Parque Nacional Cotopaxi. Desde allí, haremos la caminata hasta el Refugio Jose Ribas (4,864 m).

En nuestro último día finalmente alcanzaremos la cumbre del Cotopaxi. Partiremos a medianoche, desayunando en el camino. Después de 6-8 horas alcanzaremos la cima. Luego, comenzaremos nuestro descenso, de regreso al refugio y al estacionamiento, donde nuestro transporte privado estará esperando para llevarnos de vuelta a Quito.

Lo que la gente dice sobre Fernando

MICHAIL

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!

Carolyn

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.

Jana

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”

Sebastien

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

frederic

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!
