Ecuador's mountains and volcanoes have drawn climbers and hikers for decades. Since 1984 Bradt has been guiding them to the snow-capped summits of such giants as Cotopaxi and Chimborazo and down through the cloud forests to the Amazon basin. Extreme adventure is provided by routes up Ecuador's most challenging rock-faces, while leisurely walks take visitors through highland villages where the colorful local people follow centuries-old agricultural practices. The usual Bradt attention to natural history and local culture makes this a guide not just for trekkers but for all travelers.

For the purposes of this guidebook, the Seven Summits are based on the continental model used in Western Europe, the United States, and Australia, also referred to as the 'Bass list.'
