Overview

1. Good food throughout the circuit. 2. Beautiful views of the emblematic mountains of the Cordillera Huayhuash. 3. Considered by many as the most beautiful hike in the world. 4. Visit to Laguna Sarapococha, where Joe Simpson and Simon Yates set up camp to climb Siula Grande.

Itinerary

The Huayhuash Trekking is located in the Cordillera of the same name in the Andes of Peru, is the second highest tropical mountain range in the world after the Cordillera Blanca, and the hike that crosses its entire mountain system is considered among the most beautiful treks on the planet. In its 30 kms from north to south of this range, there are 7 mountains that exceed 6000 meters and 7 mountains over 5500 meters, among the most prominent peaks are the Yerupajá (6617 m), the second highest mountain in Peru and Siula Grande ( 6344 m), which achieved worldwide fame for being the scene of one of the most epic stories of survival of mountaineering and that was later captured in the book "Touching the void" by mountaineer Joe Simpson. The Cordillera Huayhuash is also home to dozens of glacial lakes of incomparable beauty such as: Carhuacocha, Juhuacocha, Solterococha, Mitucocha, Juraucocha, among others, and a great diversity of flora and fauna. Undoubtedly, the Huayhuash trekking is cataloged as the most beautiful alpine trekking in the world, for its beauty and the wildness of its mountains. Huayhuash is the scene of great feats of world climbing and even the history of Peru.

Highly recommended!

Published on Sep, 2024

Could not have been better: very good communication prior to the trip, very good organization and very professional, friendly and considerate team on our trip (guide Darwin, chef de cuisine Merlin with star rated mountain cooking and donkey man Solio). The camping material is high quality. The donkeys and horses are well kept and well fed. We had to adapt the trek for medical reasons, good flexible solutions were found.

Huayhuash Trek

Published on Sep, 2024

I completed an 8-day Huayhuash trek with Darwin and Persi in September 2024. Darwin is an experienced guide who closely monitors the trekkers and adjusts the pace accordingly. He's also a good cook—the meals were different every day, with dinner always starting with soup, and lunch served either on the trail or in camp. One important detail, which is often hard to find on operators' websites, is how much baggage the donkeys can carry. Andean Raju allows for 10 kilos, so you only need to carry a daypack with an extra jacket and water. Be sure to ask about this before booking! A pleasant surprise was the shower tent, where you could enjoy a bucket of hot water. There were no limits on drinking water, with plenty of boiled water always available for your tent or hiking day. A private tent is also offered for a reasonable fee.

Highly recommended tour provider

Andean Raju is a well trusted and an amazing tour provider. I definetely recommend them as they were so accountable, professional and lovely during the challenging Huayhuash 10 day circuit. Special thanks to Darwin, Madwin, Caselli and a fourth guy that i forgot the name. You were amazing and enlighted our experience.

Trip of a lifetime

Published on Aug, 2024

The 8-day mountain trek with Andean Raju was absolutely unforgettable! Starting with Pablo, who organized our trip, we felt well prepared for the trip. He met us at our hotel in Huaraz to answer questions before we left. Our guide Leo, chef Ciro, and donkey driver Percy made the experience exceptional—they went above and beyond in every way, especially compared to other groups we saw along the trail. Our guide Leo always offered optional routes to stunning overlooks, making each day unique. He taught us so much about Peruvian culture, vegetation on the trail, and environmental change. The chef accommodated my dietary restrictions (gluten free and vegetarian) with good food, and the donkey driver ensured everything ran smoothly/our stuff was well taken care of. Andean Raju’s attention to detail made the trip a true adventure. Worth every penny. Highly recommend Andean Raju for anyone looking to experience the most beautiful mountain range. Tip - it is very cold at night so pack a warm sleeping bag (recommend 0deg F bag) and many layers.

A memorable trip - thank you Andean Raju!

Due to its comprehensive offer and excellent communication in connection therewith we chose Andean Raju for organization of our 8-day Huayhuash Circuit trek. No regrets! Everything was perfectly organized by Pablo, the owner of Andean Raju. Pablo replies to each and every question you may have (regardless how ignorant such questions are) within short time, gives valuable advice and even stored our surplus luggage during our days in the mountains. Pablo assigned an excellent english speaking guide (Ricardo) who took very good care of us when needed and gave us sufficient leeway when appropriate. Ricardo knows everything about the Huayhush mountains and happily shared his knowledge. Abundant meals were prepared by Juvenal (whose constant good mood was infectious, even if communication was only possible in Spanish), always in more than sufficient quantity, with impeccable quality and considering each participant's individual dietary preferences and requirements. In summary: Thank you Pablo (and Ricardo and Juvenal) for having been our partners for this unforgettable trip. Anyone with a desire to experience a comparable lifetime journey: look no further - go with Andean Raju!
