Volcan Chimborazo is located in Ecuador and is the country's highest peak, with an altitude of 6,263 meters. It is not only a challenge target for mountaineers, but also a hot spot for eco-tourism. Surrounding the volcano is Chinbolaso National Park, where rare wild animals such as vicuna (alpaca) inhabit. Due to its unique geographical location, the summit of Chimboraso is the point farthest from the center of the Earth on the planet. The community at the foot of the mountain maintains a traditional way of life and offers tourists the opportunity to experience the local culture.
