“Es war ein guter Ausflug, allerdings habe ich die Beschreibung missverstanden, ich dachten wandert ca.3 h hin un 2 h zurück, es waren aber nur 3h insgesamt zum Wandern. Außerdem hat mir die Information gefehlt, dass man zum red valley auch noch gehen kann für 30 Soles zusätzlich. Hätte gerne mehr Zeit gehabt am Vinicunca und Red Valley. Ansonsten hat aber alles gepasst.”

“Where to begin? A fabulous trek with an incredible team. There were two of us, and we were pampered by the Vidal Expedition team. Ansangate is a captivating mountain, and it must be experienced with people who reveal its spirituality to you. Every day we went from glacier to glacier, from color to color, from discovery to experience. The expedition was very comfortable with top-notch equipment transported by our horse driver Angel. We ate more than enough thanks to our cook Beni and our assistant cook Euden, and we were expertly guided by our guide Chino. Thank you all for your good humor and smiles, thank you for all these…”

13.From Arequipa Trek : 2-Days of Hiking in the Colca Canyon

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 35 reviews · 2 days · from $21

You’ll hike from San Miguel down to Sangalle Oasis, spend the night near its pool, then climb to Cabanaconde before visiting condor viewpoints and Chivay’s hot springs. English and Spanish guides lead groups of up to 18. The trek is demanding, especially the night climb, so bring sturdy shoes, water, snacks, and a headlamp.

“The sites are amazing. The trek is a challenge that I really enjoyed. There were times when communication could've been better. Our guide was ahead when a group member fell and needed assistance, fortunately the group had supplies and helped. Partially the hikers fault for underestimating the trek and wearing poor shoes. I think there should either be an endurance test or great emphasis on the needs of each person and their physical health.”
