Hike one of the most beautiful trekking circuits in the world. This is the most dramatic high altitude trek in the Peruvian Andes with magnificent views of mountains of the Cordillera Huayhuash such as Yerupaja 6634m being the second highest mountain in Peru, Siula Grande made famous by Joe Simpson in his book and film “Touching the Void”, Ninashanca, Rondoy, Jirishanca, Rasac, Carnicero, Trapecio, Sarapo and beautiful glacial lakes. The dramatic and beautiful glacial lakes and valleys of the range provide memorable campsites and good trout fishing. Andean condors are seen more often in the Huayhuash than on other Peruvian treks, attesting to the area’s remoteness.
Our Huayhuash Classic Trek navigates some old trails that once was used by the first trekkers in the range and also includes the most scenic views like Siula Lakes viewpoint, Santa Rosa Viewpoint/Pass, view towards Siula Base Camp and a deep soak in the hot springs of Guñoc – Viconga. You won’t miss anything!.
