Description

Within the Huascaran National Park in the Peruvian Andes the dramatic Alpamayo mountain strikes the landscape.

Experience the stunning trails offering a lovely diversity of landscapes on a 10-day trek. One of these trails circles round one of the most beautiful mountains in the world, Alpamayo.

Towering in a more remote region of Cordillera Blanca, the snow-covered summit of Alpamayo stretches 5,947 meters into the crisp Andean sky.

As we encompass the perfect snow pyramid of Alpamayo we’ll get the opportunity to view this stunning piece of nature from myriad angles.

The circuit is an unforgettable mountain experience in which we’ll be able to see almost all of the most important peaks in the Cordillera Blanca.

Enjoy panoramic vistas of the snow-capped Peruvian peaks of Chacraraju, Piramide, Taulliraju and more.

Beginning in the north of Huaraz through the valley of Rio Santa, which lies between the Cordilleras Blanca and Negra. We’ll ascend the high pass of Osorui (4,860m), rolling with the mountains by ascending and descending numerous passes, including Cara Cara (4,830m) and Mesapata (4,460m).

The features of the trail also include the lovely landscape of the Pucajirca mountain before descending into a beautiful forest and around a lagoon.

Reserve your place among the majestic Andean mountainside and trek around the pyramid peak of the Alpamayo mountain, known as one of the most beautiful in the world.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
