This trek is of high difficulty. It is required that you be in good physical condition due to the low air pressure present above 3000 m.a.s.l. The trails are uneven, steep and muddy most of the time. The elevation gain for this trek is about 400 meters, starting at 3400 m.a.s.l. and reaching 3800 m.a.s.l. Keep in mind that each hour you spend hiking at high altitudes is the equivalent effort of two hours at sea level.
Anybody between the ages of 10 to 70 years-old can join. The maximum altitude reached is 3800 m.a.s.l.
The average temperature in the páramo is 10ºC, but it can drop down to 5ºC rapidly depending on cloud cover. You could also experience the full strength of the tropical sun with temperatures around 16ºC. Wettest months are May - Aug and driest months are Jan - Mar.
The exact meeting time will be sent to you the day before your tour departure. This is a group tour and other travelers MAY join you at any time during the day. Please dress appropriately for the wet and cold mountaintops. Thanks!
