Description

A sensational peak in the Andes of Peru, the Nevado Chachani (6,075m), makes for a great climb.

Scaling this great mountain will take only 2 days. Hence making this trip perfect for any ambitious climber with a few free days to reach the summit of the Nevado Chachani.

Our adventure will begin after we pick you up from your lodging at Arequipa. In a comfortable, private vehicle we will take you to the Chachani base camp (5,060m). The drive should take approximately 2.5 hours. Once we reach the base camp, we will climb for approximately 2 hours to camp 1, (5,175m), where we will spend the night in tents.

On the second day of the ascent, we will wake up at 3:00 am. After that, we will eat breakfast and slowly and safely make the approximately 5 – 6 hour ascent to the Nevado Chachani summit. From there, you will get to enjoy some sensational views under the morning sun. You will get to gaze far out at the wonderful landscape that includes a magnificent old crater. Afterwards, we will make our descent back to base camp, which will take approximately 1.5 hours. From there, we will trek for an hour to the transport and drive back to Arequipa.

Due to the size of the mountain and the technical aspects of the ascent, which include the use of crampons and an ice axe, participants should have some prior climbing experience. You should also be in good physical condition as well.

If you are looking for a great climb in the Andes of Peru, then the Nevado Chachani is for you. To enjoy this 2 climb, all you have to do is send me a request. I look forward to hearing from you.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

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!

Maxine

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.
