Ecuador…one of few words that can spark the traveller’s imagination, for being a place where our planet divides exactly in half. In this magical land we will simultaneously stand on both hemispheres of the Earth, gaze upon 6,000-metre-high volcanoes covered in glaciers – on the edge of the Pacific Ocean, and venture into the Amazon jungle.
All in a country the size of Oman, located exactly at the centre of the world, because it lies on the geographical equator, and allows curious travelers to stand at both hemispheres at the same time!
The highest peaks of the Andes, endless jungle, colonial towns, colourful markets, ancient Inca ruins and wonderfully kind people, are but some of the raw ingredients that will end in a healthy serving of pure traveller’s delight…a sensational feast thrill seekers only dream about.
Ecuador’s stretch of the Andes is carefully carved up by Panamericana – also known as the most beautiful road in the world, running along the west coast of South America. Once part of the Inca Kingdom, when the Spanish conquered it in the 16th century, Ecuador is home to 18% of all terrestrial birds, 8% and 10% of all animal and plant species…ON OUR PLANET!
Among the living treasures in this modern-day Noah’s Ark is El Cotopaxi, the second highest mountain in Ecuador, and one of the highest volcanoes in the world. Yet, despite its elevation, a summit can be achieved in just 2 days, given the good practice of the acclimatisation process.
Considered one of the most formidable volcanoes in the world, Cotopaxi is renowned for its frequent eruptions, its eruptive style, its glacial coverage and the vast population potentially exposed to its wrath.
Since the beginning of the Spanish conquest, Cotopaxi has experienced five major eruptive periods between 1532-1534, 1742-1744, 1766-1768, 1853-1854 and 1877-1880; and experts anticipate the next one is merely a matter of time.
