    Chimborazo is Ecuador’s highest mountain, rising 6 Chimborazo is Ecuador’s highest mountain, rising 6,263 metres above sea level. This extinct volcano holds a fascinating record: its summit is the farthest point from the Earth’s centre, even farther than Mount Everest, thanks to the planet’s equatorial bulge. Located in the Andes, Chimborazo is surrounded by spectacular landscapes, glaciers and wild vicuñas.

    The Ausangate Trek is one of the most spectacular The Ausangate Trek is one of the most spectacular and remote trekking routes in the Peruvian Andes. Located around Ausangate Mountain (6384m), the fifth-highest peak in Peru, the route passes through dramatic valleys, turquoise glacial lakes, colorful mountains, and high-altitude passes, with several sections reaching over 5,000 meters above sea level.

Unlike the more famous treks around Cusco, Ausangate offers a much wilder and quieter experience. The landscape is shaped by glaciers, snow-capped peaks, and traditional Andean communities, with alpacas and llamas often seen along the trail. The combination of altitude, remote landscapes, and constantly changing scenery makes Ausangate one of Peru’s most impressive multi-day treks.

    The Amazon is home to an incredible variety of wil The Amazon is home to an incredible variety of wildlife. Capybaras, the world’s largest rodents, live near rivers and wetlands and are excellent swimmers. They are highly social animals and often live in groups. The rainforest is also home to many species of monkeys, sloths, river dolphins, caimans and colorful macaws.

Among the smaller creatures, tarantulas are surprisingly common. Despite their intimidating appearance, most Amazonian tarantulas are not dangerous to humans and mainly feed on insects and other small animals.

    Puerto Maldonado sits where the Andes finally give Puerto Maldonado sits where the Andes finally give way to the lowland Amazon. Around Tambopata, old river bends have been cut off from the main river, creating hidden oxbow lakes like Lake Sandoval, now home to giant river otters, caimans and countless birds. 

But one of the strangest things here is the clay licks: at dawn, hundreds of macaws can suddenly descend on the same patch of riverbank to eat clay. The minerals are thought to help supplement their diet and neutralize toxins from the fruits and seeds they eat.
