This challenging and "less traveled" path winds it's way from the ruins of Hualycayan to the distant town of Pomabamba, taking you from the western slopes of the Peruvian Andes, all the way across and down their other side. Impressive views abound, and a visit to Alpamayo, "the Most Beautiful Mountain in the World" will send you home wondering if your fairy-tale vacation was real!

Quilquihuanca / Cojup Trek
12 days - Moderate / Strenuous - $1295

June 5 -16 / August 16 - 27

The proximity of these two stunning valleys to Huaraz has in no way tarnished their beauty. In fact, they may both be visited less each year than the other popular treks, only because the terrain encountered prevents donkeys from carrying loads the whole way around. The Quilquihuanca / Cojup is a trek for the adventurer, the backpacker (in the true sense of the word as backpacks must be carried for part of the way!), and the seeker of wild & dramatic places.

Olleros to Chavin
9 days - Easy to Moderate - $975

Dates programmed as requested

Follow one of the pre-Inca trail systems from one side of the Cordillera Blanca to the other. This ancient trail takes you past tiny mud huts where the sturdy mountain dwellers still live, over a high mountain pass, and back down to the historic temples of Chavin. In keeping with the historical significance of the trail we use the original pack animal of the Andes ; the llama, to carry our food and equipment.
