OUR SERVICE
Huaraz Treks and Climbs E.I.R.L. is an officially Registered Travel and Tourism Agency, with an office in Huaraz (Ancash region) and legally registered with SUNAT (Peru’s Tax Administration).
We offer fully supported hiking, trekking and climbing holidays, which basically means we do the work and you walk. We provide full support so all you have to carry is a daypack with whatever you require for that day’s walk. Our staff will also erect and take down the tents, cook, wash up and even supply bed tea in the mornings. This allows you plenty of free time to relax or explore your surroundings as you wish.
Huaraz Treks and Climbs is a local trekking and mountain climbing guide service that provides a caring, friendly, professional and above all safe trekking and climbing service at a fair price.
I lead the majority of treks myself; organize the logistics, accommodation, Huaraz and local staff etc.
