Tour Overview

The Cordillera Huayhuash is less popular than the Blanca, but is no less spectacular. More remote and higher than the Santa Cruz trek, the Huayhuash trek is a traverse of he mountain range made famous by the film "Touching the Void". Though trekkers may have to brave the cold weather and rugged terrain, the reward is perhaps the best views in the entire Andes range!
