Description
There are an abundance of amazing spots to visit in the Huascaran National Park in the Cordillera Blanca of Peru. And on this full day trip, I would like to take you to one of the most beautiful spots there is, the Laguna Churup (4,500m).
Beginning in Huaraz (3,100m), we will take a short drive in a private vehicle to the Pitec (3,900m) in the Huascaran National Park. Once we reach the park, we will begin our scenic hike.
The hike through the park will be quite easy. You do not have to be a hiking expert to participate, and there are no technical aspects to the hike to worry about. As a result, this trek is accessible to almost anybody. However, you should be in good physical condition, as we will be hiking for approximately 4 to 5 hours at a high altitude.
Once we reach the Laguna Churup, you will get to spend a great deal of time admiring its beauty. You will get to gaze at its glacial blue water. The sight is sensational, and with the backdrop of peaks looming above and beyond, it will create quite a lasting image.
So if you want to explore a beautiful high altitude lagoon in the mountains of Peru, this trip is for you. All you have to do to be a part of it is send me a request. I look forward to hearing from you and leading you to the Laguna Churup.
I can also guide you on another day long trek to the Laguna 69 as well. This trek also involves 30 minutes of repelling!

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.
