Description

Yet another one of the gorgeous peaks in the Cordillera Blanca of Peru, Yanapaccha is a great mountain to climb. And for 3 days, I would like to take you to the summit of this magnificent peak.

The first of the three days of this trip will take you from Huaraz to the Yanapaccha base camp (5,000m), where we will camp for the night. In between those places, we will also visit Yungay (2,500m) and the Quebrada Llanganuco km 42 (4,575m). During this journey, you will get to see the beauty of  the Cordillera Blanca, from its array of amazing trees to its vast valleys. We will also enter the Huascaran national park, where you can see unforgettable lagoons like Chinancocha and Orqoncocha.

For the second day of this trip, on the Yanapaccha glacier (5,100m), we will work on several things throughout the day, including rescue techniques and ice climbing. Thus properly preparing you for the climb to come.

On the third and final day of the adventure, we will make our way from the camp to the Yanapaccha summit (5,460m), where you will get plenty of time to enjoy the breathtaking views. Afterwards, we will make our way back to the peak’s base camp and take a transfer back to Huaraz.

This climb can be difficult at times. As a result, you should have prior mountaineering experience, and be at least 18 years of age. You should also be in good physical condition.

Do you want to climb one of the most picturesque mountains in Peru?  Then send me a request, and join me on this 3 day trek to the summit of Yanapaccha.

I can also lead you to the top of Vallunaraju on this 2 day expedition.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
