All about the Hiking Cotopaxi Combined with Biking and Climbing.

The Cotopaxi is not hard to climb concerning the required technical skills.
Nevertheless, it is with its altitude of almost 6.000 mtrs a very high mountain, which requires some acclimatization, before climbing the peak.
This 5-day program will offer you the opportunity to reach this goal.

We go from an altitude of 3.200 mtrs. up until 3.800 mtrs, where we will have a break to visit the old Inca ruins of El Salitre and to eat lunch.
