Route: From Urbina (3600 meters above sea level) following the old Panamerican route to the 4 esquinas sector, then upwards along the ice carriers' path until joining the paved Riobamba-Guaranda road, and then via trails and dirt roads to reach the Chimborazo Carrel Refuge (4800 meters above sea level).
