This is an excellent peak to hike/climb. At 5,130m it is a worthy summit to tick off. It is quite easy and non technical. Quite feasible to do it with just ice axe and crampons. The views of Cotopaxi from the summit are superb. There is also a spartan unmanned hut on the col between Sur and Norte to make the summit day and easier one.

It took us 6.5 hours in total. The starting and ending point was "La Virgen". The route to the Refugio is clear and easy to do if you are fit. From the Refugio, after approx. 300 m, it goes into the rock, where a few tricky passages must be walked with caution. This last bit is also the reason why you officially need a guide for this tour.

With luck and clear visibility, climbing this peak will reveal all the surrounding volcanoes. Antisana, Chimborazo, Iliniza Sur and Cotopaxi. The view into the vast depths is also wonderful.
