The treks are carefully chosen to show the best of the Ecuadorian landscape whilst at the same time not putting the trekker at risk. Our treks are perfect acclimatization for climbs of the high volcanoes found in Ecuador. A good plan would be to spend a couple days around Papallacta with us and then do one or two of our summit treks before attempting to climb the 5000+ meter volcanoes.
On our treks it is possible to see the great Andean Condor, beautiful snow capped volcanos, lagoons and lakes, and a massive variety of the paramo flora and fauna and volcanic landscapes. They are designed to suit all levels of fitness, and last 1 to 5 days. Each trek is adjusted to the level of the clients and multiday treks are based out of a hostel or house so there is no camping gear to carry and you can see twice as much by covering twice the distance. We concentrate on our Primary Treks around Papallacta hot springs and Cotopaxi National Park. For the hardest hikes you should be able to walk up to 6-8 hours with a daypack. Our trips include bilingual guide, transporation (4x4), food, overnight lodging, and equipment - basically everything except entrance fees. All you need to bring are warm clothes. Meals are designed around your likes and dislikes but let us know beforehand.
