No. 1 Trekking & Climbing Agency in Ecuador's Andes Mountains
Inca Trail to Ingapirka
The Inca Trail once connected the Incan empire’s northern capital Quito with its southern capital Cuzco in Peru to move trade, diplomatic messengers, as well as large marching armies during the Incan civil war.
After centuries of war the Inca Trail was largely destroyed or buried, but this section through Sangay National Park is one of the last well preserved remnants of great historic value and follows the footsteps of the revolutionary leader Commander Sucre's army as they marched over the Andes to Cuenca during the war of independence against Spain.

Trek and Climb Carihuairazo
Mount Chimborazo is the tallest mountain in Ecuador and the Chimborazo climb is non-technical, meaning you get a very high altitude without encountering sheer vertical walls that require technical skills like ice climbing.
The 6,268.2 m (20,565 ft) equatorial summit of Mount Chimborazo is also the closest point to the sun on earth. When measured from the centre of the earth instead of sea level it is the highest mountain on the planet.

Lagoons of El Altar
There are two treks you can do to El Altar – an overnight trek to the “yellow lagoon” crater lake in the middle of the extinct volcano, or the other spectacular 3 day hike that climbs the green valleys carved by glaciers into the mountainous terrain full of waterfalls and multi-coloured glacial lagoons inside Sangay National Park.
The highest point in the trek reaches the 4,800 meter snowline below El Altars glacial peaks where we will see silver, orange, and blue lagoons as well as spectacular views of Chimborazo and Sangay in clear weather.
Ecuador Condor Trek
The Condor Trek in Ecuador is one of the most famous hikes in the Andes mountains. National Geographic Adventure listed the Ecuadorian Condor Trek in its 2014 Adventure Bucket List and recommended us at Ecuador Eco Adventure to guide you on the trek.
The Condor Trek is a 4 day 3 night heavy-duty hike that begins in the Cayambe-Coca Reserve at Papallacta before heading into the Antisana Reserve until it reaches Cotopaxi National Park. The highest altitude of the trek is 4,500m / 14,763ft (the base of Volcano Sincholagua) in Ecuador’s stunning paramo as it passes the Antisana and Cotopaxi mountains.

El pasaje es inmejorable! El domo en condiciones perfectas y a los pies del taita Chimborazo! Para hospedarse aqui tiene que gustarte mucho el frío. La atención de los anfitriones es estupenda y 100% recomendable!Rubén
During my stay in Ecuador, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to partake in a two-day horseback riding trip through the countryside surrounding Mt. Chimborazo. The trip was absolutely fabulous! We embarked from Riobamba and took a bus to Arenal the friendly community president met us at his home. There were six of us total, the community president, one good friend of mine, and two other travellers, one from Australia and the other from China. It was wonderful to meet other fellow travellers as we got along really well. We packed our belongings on the horses, including a few clothes, a tent, food and water and then set out during late morning on the first day. I was absolutely amazed at the beauty of the surrounding hills and of course Chimborazo in the distance.Claire Buck
I went with Ecuador Eco Adventure on a 2 day horse trek around Chimborazo. I had an absolute blast. The horse riding was amazing. The highlands were beautiful. Ecuador Eco Adventure had everything ready for us, for less than half the price of other tours. We had meals, transportation, lodging, and great guides. We visited Salinas and thermal hot springs. It was an all around great adventure. Not to mention the night before both trips, our guide stayed up until after 2 AM to get me from the bus station without complaint.Aurita Maldonado
