Let's traverse the heights without removing our feet from the ground with this Alpamayo mountain climb of 6 days, which, in company of an expert guide, will give us access to spectacular views while we practice mountain climbing.

Day 1: Huaraz – Caraz – Cashapampa – Llamacoral

We will leave Huaraz at 7:00 am. You will follow the route north of the Alley of Huaylas until you reach Caraz, at 2200 m altitude. The next stop will be in Cashapampa, at 2900 m altitude. You will spend the first night at Llamacoral Camp, at 3760 m altitude.

Day 2: Llamacoral Camp – Base Camp

You will have breakfast early in the morning and then begin a 5-hour trek through the ravine, visiting the Jatuncocha Lagoon. Then you will go up a zigzagging path to the Arhuaycocha Canyon. From there you will go to the Alpamayo Base Camp, at 4300 m altitude where you will have dinner and rest until the next day.
