Description

Get ready to climb to the top of the Chachani volcano with this 2-day excursion from Arequipa, recommended for true adventurers!
Itinerary
Day 1
We will pick you up at 7:30 a.m. at your hotel in Arequipa in a 4x4 to start a very exciting excursion. Are you ready for a real adventure? At 10:00 a.m. we will arrive at Pampa Cañahuas, located on the backside of the Chachani volcano. At this point we will get ready while the guide gives us some basic recommendations.

We will begin the ascent on foot for two hours through gradual ascents of low intensity until we reach the base camp located at 5200 meters above sea level. Here we will set up our tents and then have a lunch of soup and pasta or canned food.

At nightfall, we will have a herbal tea and go to sleep.

Day 2
The second day will start at 2:00 am. After getting ready again for the adventure and verifying that everything is ready to go on, we will have a delicious breakfast to warm up. Then comes the highlight: the climb to the summit of the Chachani volcano.

If the weather is good, we will have reached the summit of Chachani at around 5:00 a.m. after an intense hike. Once there, you will have free time to regain strength and contemplate the fabulous view of the surrounding volcanoes: the Coropuna, the snow-capped peaks of Ampato, Hualca Hualca, the active Sabancaya, Misti and Ubinas.

After this stop, we will descend towards base camp. As we descend we will make several stops along the way to rest. Once we reach the starting point, the 4x4 will be waiting for us to take us back to Arequipa. We will leave you at your hotels around 7:00 pm.
