Come and hike through the Peruvian Andes in vastly changing landscapes including forests, prairies, and ice cold glacial lakes.
The glacier covered peaks of the Cordillera Blanca soar into the blue skies of northern Peru. These tours takes you to the highest tropical range on earth, more than 70 summits top 18,000 feet and awesome Huascaran reigns over this range at 22,204 feet. We spend a couple days acclimatizing around the mountain town of Huaraz.
The Cordillera Blanca is also a climbing playground with several peaks suitable for beginner climbers, through to technically difficult and challenging climbing including the famous Alpamayo, and the highest mountain in Peru - the massive Huascarán.
