      Our ascension will begin at midnight. The Cayambe ascension is not of a technical type, it consists in crossing some crevasses and being in a good health condition. We reach the peak
      early in the morning where a spectacular view will be presented in front of us. For the ascension and back we will need around 9N10 hours. Then we head back to Quito.
