In a few words

The Huayhuash mountain range, though magnificent, remains largely unknown and unexplored. It alone boasts six spectacular peaks over 6,000 meters high and some twenty glacial lagoons with striking colors. You will begin your journey with acclimatization in the Cordillera Blanca before venturing into the heart of the massif and discovering the wonders of the Huayhuash Sanctuary. A breathtaking trip for lovers of trekking, wide-open spaces, and high mountains!

The highlights

  • A trek on little-used trails in the wild Huayhuash mountain range
  • Acclimatization in the Cordillera Blanca at the foot of the snow-capped giants
  • A human adventure with your local team
