Trip Overview

Get ready for an unforgettable ski mountaineering adventure in Ecuador’s stunning Andes. Our custom trips are all about crafting a genuine, thrilling experience that suits your preferences and adapts to the ever-changing mountain conditions.

We’ll kick things off with an acclimatization hike on the Pichinchas, towering above Quito. This trek helps you adjust to the altitude and sets the stage for the exciting days ahead. From there, we’ll take you to Cayambe, where you’ll tackle its diverse terrain. Depending on the conditions and your interests, we might also explore Cotopaxi, and if the stars align, even attempt the mighty Chimborazo. What sets our trips apart is our team of local guides. They bring a wealth of knowledge and a true sense of the land, making your experience not just thrilling, but deeply authentic. They help ensure your safety while enriching your adventure with their insights.

We understand that conditions can vary, especially at high altitudes, and we’re dedicated to finding the best possible skiing experiences for you. Let us tailor a trip that’s as unique as you are and discover the magic of Ecuador’s high mountains with us.
