CHAVIN DE HUANTAR

3 DAYS / 2 NIGHTS (HUA1)

The Huaylas passageway, located at about 400 kilometers north of Lima, is an authentic natural treasure with forested landscapes, colorful valley, snowy mountain peaks and a varied quantity of typical flora and fauna. Its greatest attraction is the snowy mountain of Huascaran with more than 6,768 meters in altitude. The mountain Alpamayo is another tall one at more than 6,120 meters in height. These two snowy peaks form part of the cordillera Blanca, the tropical mountain range which is the highest in the entire planet and thusly named for the chemical composition of its quartz rocks. This region is a testament to the development of the Chavín culture, the most ancient in the region and a culmination in artistic and cultural expression. On this tour our team is in charge of providing all the necessary facilities and requirements to ensure a pleasant tour.
