From this point, we start our steady uphill hike at a relaxed pace, lasting around 5 to 6 hours. Along the way, we’ll enjoy breathtaking Andean landscapes, as well as the local flora and fauna typical of this volcanic region.
By the afternoon, we’ll arrive at the Base Camp (4,650 m.a.s.l.), where we’ll set up for the night in comfortable tents designed to withstand the cold mountain temperatures.
At 5:00 P.M., we’ll enjoy a hot dinner at the camp — perfect for recharging energy before resting. Please note that each participant should bring their own light lunch and snacks for the day’s hike.
