Sincholagua 4893 Meters

 The climbing route of Sincholagua follows the ridge on the left. Seen from
                        Cotopaxi Park.
     Main Climbing Route: Water may be difficult to find on this route so keep
 this in mind. Also an early start (dawn) is recommended as the ground and
 rocks tend to be more solid. From the two ridges described above (known as
 the Parquedero) head up to the base of the rocks. Head left and up the rocky
 peak to the northwest side of the mountain. This should be cairned. Eventually
 you will drop down to a scree basin and head for the scree saddle just below
 the summit. Head up the 25m exposed pitch towards the summit. Head left
 towards a gully and up the last exposed section. Rappelling off the summit is a
 good idea.

 Additional Routes: Pico Hoeneisen (technical on poor rock)

     Getting There: Getting to Sincholagua is much like heading to Cotopaxi. You
 go through the park and around Cotopaxi. Eventually you will cross a river on a
 small bridge. Continue on this road for approximately 3km whereby you should
 see a cone-shaped hill on the right and a hillock on the left. From here follow
 the trail which goes left and northwest. Head on this trail for about 4-5km, then
 head right on a track which fords the Rio Pita. From here head northeast up a
 ridge until you meet a ridge running northwest. You can camp near the
 intersection of the two ridges.
