The Cordillera Blanca is a great climbing destination, with many peaks over 6000 meters. At 5686 meters the Nevado Vallunaraju is ideal for beginners since it doesn't involve technical difficulties. In addition, you can get stunning views of the whole Cordillera Blanca from the summit.
I recommend this expedition to those who want to have a good acclimatization before a higher mountain in the Andes. It is also an ideal trek to gain some experience in one of the most wonderful mountain ranges in the world.
You can check the itinerary for this trip below. Our starting point will be in Huaraz (3091 m). In fact, this city is a mountaineering destination for climbers from all over the world.
I'm an IFMGA Mountain Guide born in Huaraz, with a wide experience in these mountains. That's why I also organize climbing trips to other peaks in the region. You can check out these programs in the Nevado Pisco (5752 m) or the Nevado Alpamayo (5947 m).
Please contact me if you want to be a part of this 2-day trip to the summit of Nevado Vallunaraju. I will be happy to be your guide in this expedition to the amazing Peruvian Andes.
