Riding downhill Chimborazo tour from Carrell Refuge at 4800 meters with mountain bikes is a challenging but rewarding adventure. The tour begins with a steep descent on a rocky trail that quickly turns into loose volcanic ash and scree. Riders will encounter sharp switchbacks and steep drops, requiring excellent bike handling skills and a good sense of balance.
The tour offers breathtaking views of the Andes Mountains and stunning alpine landscapes. However, the altitude adds an extra challenge, as riders need to acclimatize to the thin air and lower oxygen levels.

Riders should also be familiar with the area’s weather conditions and bring appropriate gear, such as rain jackets and warm layers.
The tour is a challenging but rewarding experience that offers an incredible sense of accomplishment for those who complete it. It is a great way to experience the stunning natural beauty of Chimborazo and test your mountain biking skills.
