All Months
June through September offers the driest weather, though 'dry' is relative here – pack rain gear regardless. December through February works well too, with fewer crowds and decent conditions. March through May brings heavy rains that can cancel outdoor activities and turn dirt roads to mud. But here's what matters more than seasons: Tungurahua's mood. When the volcano gets active, authorities sometimes restrict access to certain areas. Check current volcanic activity before booking. Weekends get crowded with Ecuadorian families, especially during school holidays. If you want the swing at Casa del Árbol to yourself, arrive early on weekdays.
