Description
Would you like to discover one of the most beautiful lagoons in Huaraz in Peru? Then join this 1-day hiking adventure to the stunning Laguna 69 which is located in the Huascarán National Park, a renowned UNESCO world heritage site in the Cordillera Blanca of the Peruvian Andes.
The Laguna 69 is one of over 400 lagoons that are located in the region. It is easy to access and offers spectacular views of the Peruvian Andes. On the way, you will also enjoy walking by a stream and coming across small waterfalls. The lagoon is located at an altitude of 4,600 m (15,100 ft), and it will take us 12 hours to get there and back.
We will set off from Huaraz, very early in the morning. We will pick you up at 05:00 am at your hotel and begin driving through some charming Andean towns until we reach Quebrada Llanganuco where you can stop for breakfast if you wish. From there, we will pass the Llanganuco (Chinancocha and Orconcocha) lakes before reaching Cebollapampa from where we will begin our 3-hour trek. On the way, we will enjoy views of the stunning peaks of the region (Huascarán, Huandoy, Yanapaccha, Pisco, Chacraraju). Finally, we will arrive at the lake where we will enjoy breathtaking views and then trek back down to drive back to Huaraz where we will arrive at around 6 pm.
This is an easy-going trek and everyone is welcome to join. However, you will need to be prepared to spend a few hours hiking at a relatively high altitude. Of course, we will be there to help and guide you every step of the way.

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.
