Hey guys - I'm planning to be in Ecuador early this December but will unfortunately be a little tight on time so I thought I'd check in and see if anyone experience in the area thinks that this proposed itinerary is completely insane / doable but aggressive / completely reasonable:
Day 1: Arrive in Quito and relax
Day 2: Go up Teleferiqo - sleep in Quito
Day 3: Climb Pichincha - sleep in Quito
Day 4: Travel to Cayambe - sleep at Refugio Cayambe
Day 5: Rest/Acclimatize/Explore day around the hut
Day 6: Summit Cayambe - sleep in Cayambe town
Day 7: Travel to Cotopaxi - sleep at Refugio Jose Rivas
Day 8: Summit and return - sleep where?
Day 9: Travel to Chimborazo - sleep at Whymper hut
Day 10: Summit and return - sleep where?
Day 11: Travel to quito and fly home
I could see wanting to add at least a day onto the end in Quito andanother day between Cotopaxi and Chimborazo but comments would be much appreciated!
Cheers.
