Itinerary

Start: 9:00 am at your hotel in Huaraz.
End: 8:00 pm in downtown Huaraz.

Day 1: Huaraz – Matacancha (6-hour trip).

This first day, which does not involve any hiking, begins with the departure from the city of Huaraz in the morning. The journey by land will take 6 hours until arriving at the first camp, Matacancha. Before sunset and getting ready for dinner and bed, we will be able to enjoy views from our camp of the snowcapped Mount Rondoy and Mount Ninashanca.

Day 2: Punta Cacanán – Carhuacocha (7 hours of trekking).

We will get up early to eat breakfast at camp and then begin the hike up to the Punta Cacanán pass at an altitude of 4,700 meters (15,420 feet). After taking in the view and resting for a bit, we will descend to Lake Mitucocha, where we will stop a moment to take pictures. Afterwards, we will go up again to the Carhuac pass at an altitude of 4,650 meters (15,256 feet). From here, we will be able to see the Yerupaja Grande mountain at an altitude of 6,634 meters (21,765 feet), and the Siula at an altitude of 6,344 meters (20,814 feet). As we descend from here, we will see our next campsite, Lake Carhuacocha. We will have dinner and go to sleep to continue on the next day.

Day 3: Huayhuash (8 hours of trekking).

We will get up early to eat breakfast and start the day's trek. We will take a different path from the donkeys, because our route offers better views of the surrounding mountains. We will also see lakes of all different colors before reaching the pass at an altitude of 4,800 meters (15,748 feet). From here we will descend down to the Huayhuash camp. We will eat dinner and go to sleep.

Day 4: Portachuelo – Viconga (5 hours of trekking).

We will depart from camp and begin the hike up to the Portachuelo pass at an altitude of 4,750 meters (15,584 feet). From here, we will be able to see a valley with mountains on both sides: Raura Range on the one side and the Cordillera Huayhuash on the other. Next, we will descend to our campsite and pass by Lake Viconga. Here we will have a chance to unwind in some thermal springs before eating dinner and going to bed to rest.

Day 5: Coyuc Pass – San Antonio – Huanaypatay (7 hours of trekking).

We will eat breakfast early to get an earlier start to the day. The first stop of the day is to visit the Coyuc pass at an altitude of 5,000 meters (16,404 feet). Just like on the other days, and if weather permits, from here up high we will be able to enjoy views of the surrounding mountains, such as Sarapo, Trapecio, and Jurau. Then, we will continue with the descent, where there is an optional detour to explore the San Antonio lookout point. It is important to note that if we take this detour, the hike will take 3 hours longer to reach camp. Next, the flat trail continues until the Huanaypatay camp, where we will have dinner and go to sleep.

Day 6: Huayllapa – Huatiac (7 hours of trekking).

After breakfast, we will start a trek upwards that is a bit difficult. We will be able to see waterfalls and different flowers and plants along the way. We will reach the community of Huayllapa where we can buy some things before continuing along our way. After this, we will resume the climb upwards until reaching the Huatiac camp, where we will be able to see the Diablo Mudo mountain at an altitude of 5,223 meters (17,136 feet).

Day 7: Tapush Pass – Yaucha Pass – Jahuacocha (6 hours of trekking).

We will start the day with a trek up to the Tapush Pass at an altitude of 4,800 meters (15,748 feet). After seeing the Cordillera Blanca in all its splendor (if the clouds permit), we will continue on the hike to Lake Nawincocha. After crossing it, we will continue the trek to the Yaucha Pass at an altitude of 4,800 meters (15,748 feet). We will continue to see mountains reaching over 5,000 meters (16,404 feet) along the route, with lakes in the lower parts. Next, we will descend to our last campsite, Lake Jahuacocha. We will eat dinner and go to sleep.

Day 8: Llamac – Huaraz (3 hours of trekking).

We will get up early to leave camp and start the trek to the town of Llamac. We will catch our last glimpse of the Cordillera Blanca before reaching our vehicle that is awaiting us to take us back to Huaraz.

Despite the 4x4 vehicle has space for 6 passengers plus the guide, the last seat of the vehicle is narrow, so, in case you want comfort for all the passengers, our suggestion is to make the tour in two groups of 3 people each (two separated bookings).

I have used DeNomades to plan and organize a wonderful trip during our stay in San Pedro de Atacama. I wanted to make sure we control the buget, all is scheduled and of good quality. We only had 2 days but with DeNomades we were able to fit the itinerary of 4 days...

Great professional tours. The website is pretty good and booking is easy. The tours were cheaper than what I found else where. Will use again in my future South American travels.

I just wanted to say a massive "thank you" to the Denomades team! I have booked a whopping 8 tours with them across 3 countries (Peru, Bolivia and Chile) and can only give them 5 stars across the board. They have been super-responsive, helpful and friendly...

Our group of friends booked two tours in La Paz. Booking was very fast and easy, and the guides were awesome! Up to now they were the best guides we met in all South America. I recommend Denomades for all!

We took the 4-day private tour to the Uyuni flat in Bolivia. Absolutely lovely experience. We had no previous recommendation about this agency/tour so it was a risky adventure. Replies to emails were immediate, help with payment was quick...
