LAKES and ICED PEAKS TREK: CORDILLERA HUAYHUASH (13 days / 12 nights)
|
This full circuit of the Cordillera Huayhuash encompasses views of glistening vertical walls of ice, snow, and rock.
Because of the geography and the quality of ice and snow, climbers compare this range with the Himalayas.
We have spectacular and varied views of Jerupajá (6634m), Jirishanca(6094m), Jirishanca Chico (6121m), Siulá (6344m), Siulá Chico (6265m), Rondoy (5879m), Jurau (5674m), Trapecio (5644m), and Carnicero (5960m)
