The Ilinizas South (5245mt) is located 55km Southwest of Quito.  It is famous for being the sixth highest mountain in the country. Prehistorically they were one volcano but today the two peaks are separated by a saddle of about 1km in width.

The southern peak has deglaciation changes caused by global warming, affecting its ice conditions and is thus now reserved for experienced ice climbers. Hence, expertise on ice techniques is requested. The South peak suggests several challenging and demanding routes. Gulliver tour start the climb at night from the refuge Nuevos Horizontes at an altitude of 4670m.  We offer a professional bilingual guide, Mountain base support, equipment and 4*4 transportation. 

The Ilinizas are are two peaks located 55km Southwest of Quito. Iliniza Sur (5250m) is famous for being the sixth highest mountain in the country whilst Iliniza Norte (5126m) is the eighth highest.

Prehistorically, they were one volcano but today the two peaks are separated by a saddle of about 1km in width. Both peaks offer some of the more enjoyable climbing in Ecuador. For the hiker or soft climber, the North peak is a truly fun climb with some heart- stopping scrambles thrown in. South peak has experienced some deglaciation changes induced by global warming, now affecting its ice conditions. South Peak is thus reserved for experienced ice climbers and expertise in ice techniques is requested. The South peak provides several challenging and demanding routes as well.

Cotopaxi is considered one of the world`s highest active volacanoes and is at 5897m (19,348ft), Ecuador`s second highest mountain. Its perfectly symmetrical cone, covered in a thick blanket of snow and ice, gracefully rises from a beautiful páramos plateau.  Herds of wild horses graze on the extensive plains at the foot of the volcano or gather to drink at the lovely Limpiopungo lagoon, which reflects the jagged white peaks of nearby Volcan Rumiñahui (4,712m) and makes a great spot for watching waterfowl and other birds. Walking in the National Park, you will notice pumice, ash, stone and other volcanic debris amid the tiny páramos plants. On a day trip to the National Park it is possible to drive as high as 4,600m (15,092ft) up Cotopaxi then trek up a sandy scree slope to reach the snout of the glacier at 4,800m (15,748ft). Because of the thinness of the air these 200m (656ft), which seem tantalisingly short, can take well over an hour to climb.

Chimborazo is the highest mountain in the country and for many years was thought to be the highest in the world. It still retains the distinction of being the point on the earth's surface which is farthest from its center.

Chimborazo is located 150km southwest of Quito. The ancient and extinct volcano's rounded bulk testifies to its great age. It is an extremely massive mountain which volcanologists claim is composed of the remains two volcanoes. The timetable is similar to the Cotopaxi tour but involves a longer climb of approximately 12 hours and includes a glacier tranining session, dinner, and a night at the refuge (4800m).  The climb is a real challenge and offers  climbers the oportunity to break the magical 6,000m barrier.
