Description

Tocllaraju is a 6,032m mountain of the Peruvian Cordillera Blanca, and one of the most amazing peaks in the entire Andes range. This trip is your opportunity to reach its summit with an expert local guide. Join me!

Located almost entirely within the Huascaran National Park, the Cordillera Blanca extends for 200 km and includes several over-6000m peaks and hundreds of glaciers. Tocllaraju, first climbed in 1939, is one of its emblematic mountains and a popular mountaineering destination.

This 6-day ascent requires previous climbing experience and a good fitness level. You should be physically able to hike and climb several hours per day, and be technically prepared for some steep ice sections.

This will be an unforgettable alpine experience. We will cross beautiful gorges, native forests, glaciers and rivers. Then, at night we will rest in tents, surrounded by fabulous alpine landscapes. Breathtaking views of huge mountains such as Huascaran, Hualcan and Palcaraju are waiting for us! You can check the complete itinerary below!

So, if you are up for this 6-day mountaineering adventure in the Cordillera Blanca, please contact me. I’ll be glad to take you to the summit of the impressive Tocllaraju!

We can also climb the highest peak in Perú: check out my 5-day Huascaran trip!

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.
