12-day Mountain biking tour around Huascarán in Peru’s Cordillera Blanca

Would you like to enjoy a **thrilling mountaineering adventure in South America**? Then come to Huaraz, Peru, and join me for an **unforgettable ascent to the top of Nevado Pisco**, in the Cordillera Blanca!

**The Cordillera Blanca is a mountain range that belongs to the Peruvian Andes.** It stretches for 200km and includes huge snow-capped peaks, more than 700 glaciers, and beautiful deep-blue colored lakes. Protected by the Huascarán National Park, established in 1975, it is **the most extensive tropical range in the world.**

**On this 3-day mountaineering tour, we will climb Nevado Pisco (5,752m)**, one of the popular peaks of the Cordillera Blanca. Standing about 60 km north of Huaraz, the capital of the Ancash Region, this impressive mountain **belongs to the multi-peaked massif of Huandoy.**

The first day, we will **hike through the Cebollapampa Valley** to the Peru mountain hut, which lies at Pisco’s Base Camp. Then, the next will be summit day: **after crossing a stunning glacial moraine we will reach the top of Nevado Pisco**. Once there, we will enjoy superb views dominated by the  Huascarán, Chopicalqui, Artesonraju and Alpamayo peaks!

Furthermore, our trip includes two nights at a charming Peru mountain Hut. We will **rest surrounded by a unique landscape and enjoy delicious dishes.**

Please keep in mind that this alpine adventure requires a **good fitness level and acclimatization.** We will hike more than 10 hours with a 900m elevation gain. In addition, you should also have some **winter mountaineering experience.** For more information about the tour, you can check out the itinerary below.
