| The Peruvian Andes provide a vast system of trails, from the lower
valleys to the higher passes, there's plenty of options. The weather splits the year in two, wet season, from November to March, and dry for the rest of the year, being these last months the best time for hiking and camping. Most campsites are around 3800mts, so cold temperatures must be expected at night. A maximum altitude gain of +1000mt per day is standard. The snow line lies at an average of 4800mts so vegetation still provides nice shelter at lunch spots and campsites. Villages are found up to 3600mts, with friendly campesinos making their means of living from live stock and farming. Our Mountain Guides will help on translating the landscape and local culture as well. Cooks, Porters, and Mule Drivers will provide enough support along day walks, and our quality camping gear, to match the high altitude, will enhance comfort and safety. |
