Meals: Breakfast 

At 10:00 am, you will meet at the office for a mandatory briefing and technical gear fitting. Afterward, a private transfer will take you to Chimborazo Basecamp Lodge at 39000 m , where you will spend the night. The driving time is approximately 45 minutes to one hour, depending on road conditions.

Meals included on this day are breakfast and lunch, with dinner served at the lodge at 6:00 pm.

We depart at 1:00 am with a short drive to the Carihuairazo trailhead. Between 2:00 and 3:00 am, the ascent begins. Carihuairazo is a mixed mountain: the initial section consists of high-altitude trekking terrain, followed by a final glacier push that requires several hours of climbing. The summit window is between 6:00 and 8:00 am. After descending, you return to Chimborazo Basecamp Lodge, where breakfast is served, followed by time to rest and recover.

  You stay at Chimborazo Basecamp Lodge at 3,900 meters. This is a free day dedicated to rest, recovery, and further acclimatization, allowing your body to adapt to the altitude before the next climbing objective.

Meals included on this day are breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

  This morning, you will enjoy a hearty breakfast and have time to relax in the lodge’s common areas while taking in the views of Chimborazo. Around 1:00 PM, our guides will arrive, and you will be served a warm lunch at Chimborazo Basecamp Lodge (3,900 m) and final gear check.

By 3:00 pm, we reach the Refuge Carrel car park (4,850 m). From here, those continuing to Camp 1 (5,300 m) begin a two-hour ascent, hiking slowly to aid acclimatization while enjoying views of the glacier and surrounding valleys.

Upon arrival, there is time to rest and prepare gear for the night’s climb. In both the refuge and Camp 1, dinner is served at 5:00 pm, after which climbers rest until the summit push later in the evening.

The summit push begins late at night, with climbers ascending under the stars toward Chimborazo’s Whymper summit (6,263 m). The climb typically takes 6 to 10 hours, depending on weather and group pace, with steady progress across snow and ice fields.

The summit window is between 6:00 and 7:30 am, allowing time to enjoy sunrise views from the highest point in Ecuador and the closest point to the sun on Earth.

After taking summit photos, you will begin your careful descent, returning to Camp 1 (5,300 m)  for a warm breakfast and a moment to rest.

Following breakfast, we pack up and begin the return journey back to Riobamba (2,750 m), marking the end of services and the conclusion of your Chimborazo expedition.
