LA VUELTA DEL HIELERO IS A ROUTE AROUND THE CHIMBORAZO VOLCANO WHICH IS CONSIDERED THE CLOSEST POINT TO THE SUN WITH A HEIGHT OF 6,263 METERS. THE ROUTE RUNS AT AN AVERAGE HEIGHT OF 4,600 M.S.N.M. WITH A VERY VARIED TERRAIN FROM PAJONALES, ARENALES AND VOLCANIC STONES. This is a mainly off-trail route, at times using  paths of the Vicuñas.  This route is the highest defined because going higher one would encounter ravines, crevasse and ice. The begins and ends at the Chimborazo Lodge located at 3,900 meters above sea level. 

The route starts at St. Olofs church in Falköping, it goes over Mössberg then passes through Gudhem and Lake Hornborga visitor centre before arriving in Varnhem. 

The path is waymarked with the classic pilgrimage mark of the red St. Olof’s mark. It’s the stretch that has the strongest historic connection to the pilgrimage phenomenon with old churches, etc. 

Some elevation in the beginning and the end of the route, a bit flatter along Lake Hornborga. In overall a really pleasant route, with great sceneries. A mix of trail and asphalt, but not much traffic on the roads.
