TREKKING CEDROS - ALPAMAYO - ULTA

11 Días / 10 Noches

This program offers the chance to become familiar with the are near the mountains Alpamayo, Santa Cruz, Pucahirca, Taulliraju, Huascarán, and Chacraraju; the route starts at Huallcayan, and goes on to Wuishcash, Cullicocha lake, cedros and Alpamayo canyon. We then arrive at Jancarurish, from where the natural “pyramid” arrises. This is Alpamayo glacier, the most beautiful mountain of our planet. This glacial formation is joined to that of the Pucahircas, and the quenual forests, and multi – colored lakes.

The highest pass we cross is Cara cara (4,830 meters), and from there we descend to Huillca, to experience Andean history by visiting rural communities that show their cultural traditions in Jancapampa.

This is one of the most beautiful treks in the Cordillera Blanca, because every day it contains impressive country side, and its degree of difficulty is rewarded through discovering its impressive natural beauty.
