Illiniza North Summit Climb - 2 days

The 5126 meter peak of Illiniza Norte is an excellent acclimatization climb before attempting higher peaks such as Cotopaxi. The climb to the summit follows a ridge with some difficult sections, but the route is non technical. Good physical fitness is required.

Cayambe Summit Climb - 2 days

A popular destination for climbers, the 5,790 meter peak of the Cayambe volcano is Ecuador's third highest peak and perhaps Ecuador's most beautiful glacier. The climb is challenging, and is recommended only for those with good physical fitness and acclimatization to altitude, however climbing experience is not essential.

Chimborazo Summit Climb - 2 days

The Chimborazo volcano is Ecuador's highest, and its 6,268 meter peak is the farthest point in the world from the earth's center. This is a challenging climb, recommended only for experienced climbers and subject to severe weather and avalanche risks, but reaching the top is truly an unforgettable experience.

Anaconda Lodge - Tena region

Anaconda was the first lodge in the Ecuadorian Amazon, recently rebuilt and restored by new owners.
