Horseback Riding Tours Around Chimborazo

At Ecuador Eco Adventure, we organize 1, 2, and 3-day horseback riding tours inside the Chimborazo Wildlife Reserve. The routes cross the stunning Andean páramo toward destinations such as Salinas de Guaranda, the beautiful Carihuairazo valley, and Portal Andino.

Each day includes approximately 4 to 5 hours of horseback riding through dramatic volcanic terrain, open grasslands, glacial valleys, and traditional Andean communities. Every section of the route offers completely different scenery, creating a true free-ride horseback adventure in the Ecuadorian Andes.

One of the highlights of the multi-day horseback tours is visiting Salinas de Guaranda, a famous mountain community recognized throughout Ecuador for its sustainable development projects, artisan cheese production, chocolate cooperatives, and local Andean culture. Travelers can experience authentic rural life while exploring one of the most scenic regions near Chimborazo.

The surrounding landscapes are home to wild vicuñas, Andean foxes, native birds, and spectacular views of Ecuador’s volcanic corridor. Riding at the foot of Chimborazo provides a unique perspective of the mountain and allows visitors to connect with the traditions of horseback travel in the Andes.
