Description

Explore some of the most stunning peaks in the Cordillera Blanca in Peru on this amazing trip. During 19 days, I’ll take you to the summits of Urus (5,450 meters), Ishinca (5,530 meters) and Alpamayo (5,947 meters) for an amazing experience and some outstanding views. Follow me!

This exciting adventure will take place in the beautiful Huascaran National Park. We’ll begin by taking a bus from Lima to Huaraz. From there, we’ll ascend the three summits with an acclimatization hike to Laguna Churub and some rest days. Make sure to read the proposed itinerary below. The program may change due to weather conditions.

The first two peaks will be a preparation for the most challenging one: Alpamayo, considered the most beautiful mountain in the world. It has a characteristic pyramidal shape and is one of the highest points in the national park. Its ascent is considered between moderate and difficult, mostly depending on the time of the year. I strongly recommend you are physically prepared for the trip so you can handle the altitude better.

Book your trip now! I would love to guide you on this wonderful and challenging experience.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
