Early in the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel in Quito, and head towards the west side of the city to take the Cable Car or Gondola, which gives you a spectacular view over the city and its surroundings. The Cable Car moves us from an altitude of 2950m with a viewpoint over 4050m in 15 minutes. On the way, you will enjoy a fantastic view of Quito and more than 14 peaks of the Andes. From there, the walk begins along the slopes of the Rucu Pichincha summit, which takes approx. 2-3 hours of walking and 1.5 hours for what is known by the typical moor (Andean Paramo) the vegetation of the Andes to the rocky summit of Rucu Pichincha. From 4,680 m (15,450 ft) high this summit has great views on a clear day, with Quito in the valley and the volcanoes that surround the snow cap in Cayambe, Antisana and Cotopaxi on the horizon. After lunch, we descend again to the cable car and return to Quito.

5.00Today we had the most wonderful experience hiking all the way up from the teleferico to the summit of Rucu Pichincha. I can only say amazing things of our guide Leonardo Guerrero. He was on time for our hotel pickup, he safely drove us to the teleferico and got us started on the hike (not before warming up to avoid injuries!). He was knowledgeable of the area as well as local trees and animals and promptly answered all my questions. He was very kind and help me climb up when the trail required rock climbing. We had arrived in Quito just a few hours before in the middle of the night due to a flight delay, nevertheless Leonardo set a pace that we could follow despite the lack of sleep and acclimatization. I would strongly recommend working with Leonardo as he has experience with city tour as well behind hiking. Thank you Leonardo for a first lovely day in Quito!
