Description

Get ready to ascend the impressive Nevado Chachani, Peru on this 2-day adventure. Filled with challenges and outstanding views, this is the ultimate mountaineering experience.

The Nevado Chachani is one of the most difficult ascents in Peru. Its peak reaches 6,075 meters above sea level and offers incredible views of the Pico de los Ángeles, Monte Trigo, Horqueta and Principal peaks. Even though it is an inactive volcano, the lava is still visible and formes gorges, making the ascent more interesting and challenging. This volcano is considered “asleep” since it was once active but hasn’t shown activity in a long time.

The volcano is located 55 kilometers away from Arequipa, where we’ll meet to begin this adventure. The ascent to the peak is usually done in six hours (plus 2 to the base camp). Even though the ascent is not technically difficult, except in rainy season, the height demands a good fitness level. We strongly recommend you get used to the height in the nearby areas before the trip.

So book your trip now and get ready to discover this stunning South American peak. This is an adventure you’ll never forget!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
