Detailed program:
Día 1: Huaraz - Transfer via Pitec (3850 m) - Trekking Quebrada Quilcayhuanca - Close to Laguna Tullpacocha (4350 m)
Today we head for the small village of Unchus and Llupa. From Pitec we begin the hike to our next destination, the Quilcayhuanca Valley. The route winds through the gorge alongside glaciated peaks. Here we also find archaeological remains called Nuevo Tambo. The valley is surrounded by peaks, like the majestic Nevado Adavita (5,518 m), the Nevada Tullparaju (5,787 m), Chinchey (6,222 m) and many more. The Cayeshpampa camp (4,100 m) is not easy to find among the rocks, so we can also camp near the lake. In the afternoon we’ll climb to Laguna Tullpacocha, in which icebergs from the glacier still float. Overnight Camp (-/L/D)
Día 2: Laguna Tullpacocha - Cayashpampa - Huapi Pass (5020 m) - Cojup (4150 m)
Today we set off on an uphill trail, getting to Cuchillacocha Lake (4,625 m) at the foot of the snowcapped peaks of Pucaranra (6,156 m) and Chinchey (6,222 m). From here we’ll continue climbing to Huapi Pass (5,020 m), approximately 5 hours to arrive at the highest point of the circuit. We then descend toward Cojup Gorge to set up camp in this beautiful canyon. Later we’ll take a short hike to Palcacocha Lake (4,350 m) and return to enjoy the site of the peaks at sunset. Overnight Camp (B/L/D)
Día 3: Quebrada Cojub - Trekking down via Quebrada Cojub - Transfer via Villages Llupa and Unchus to Huaraz
After breakfast we leave at 8am for an easy return. We leave from camp and trekking down along the quebrada Cojub trail, in the end of the valley our private transport will be waiting to transport via villages Llupa and Unchus. It’s likely we’ll arrive early and have lunch in Huaraz. Lodging in the hotel. Overnight Hotel (B/L/-)
