Itinerary description

Good acclimatisation hike with amazing views overlooking the Cordillera Blancas and the Huaraz valley.

We took the road up, and which winded it’s way through several small villages on the way to the summit. Descending, we took the faster, yet steeper, footpaths back to the Santa Cruz bridge.

Catch a colectivo E or H10 from Huaraz. The bus driver will let you know your stop.
