There is loads of great climbing in the Riobamba/Chimborazo area, mostly easily accessible from the city.
The city of Riobamba sits right in the middle of some of Ecuador's most iconic volcanoes, including Chimborazo, the country's highest. Within an hour of the city there is some great sport and trad climbing to be had.
Some of the crags are on private land and require a fee to enter.
There are plenty of hotels in Riobamba or camping is available at some of the crags.
Leave no trace.
