Nevado Pisco in Peru is one of the most popular peaks in the Cordillera Blanca for mountaineering. Follow me on an incredible 3-day trip to this summit and discover why everybody loves it.
The Cordillera Blanca is one of the most beautiful mountain chains in the world. It covers 180 kilometers from North to South and is home to 663 glaciers, 16 main mountains, 269 lagoons and 41 rivers. Nevado Pisco (5,752 m) is known as one of the first acclimatization peaks for those looking to conquer one of the over-6,000-meter summits.
For this adventure, we’ll begin our trip in Huaraz (3,100m) and travel to Cebollapampa (3,900m). Then, we’ll ascend towards the Pisco Base Camp (4,600m) or to Peru Refuge (4,675m). On the second day, we’ll reach Nevado Pisco’s summit and go back to our camp. This is the longest day, with 10 hours of ascent, but the views of the Cordillera Blanca we’ll get at the top are worth it. We’ll get to see the Chacraraju, Huandoy, Huascarán and Chopicalqui, just to name a few. Finally, on the third day, we’ll go down to Cebollapampa and back to Huaraz.
Keep in mind that this trip can also be accomplished in two days if the group is properly acclimatized and has the necessary experience. Whichever your preference, let me know.
So, are you ready to discover the wonderful mountains of Peru? Then send your request. I’ll take care of all the details to provide you with a wonderful experience.

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!

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.

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.
