The páramo, a mountain landscape, its small glacier still resisting global warming, and a short rock climb to reach its summit make for an interesting ascent.
Its volcanic cone, destroyed in its last eruption, is said by legend to have lost its head in numerous battles with Taita Chimborazo for the love of Mama Tungurahua.
