HUARAZ Tours

The Valley of Callejon de Huaylas is one of the best places in South America to enjoy superb mountain scenery and plenty of outdoor activities such as trekking, mountain climbing, mountain biking, skiing and rafting. It's also a great place for the less adventurous, who enjoy going for day walks and exploring the villages and their lively markets.

The 40 km wide valley runs north-south for nearly 200 km between the snow-capped mountains of the Cordillera Blanca (White Mountains) to the east and the Cordillera Negra (Black Mountains) to the west. The main destination for visitors to the Callejon de Huaylas is the city of Huaraz, about eight hours by bus from Lima.

The setting of the city, at the foot of the Cordillera Blanca, is spectacular. You can see over 20 snow-capped peaks over 5,000 meters, of which the most notable is Huascaran (6,768m), the highest mountain in Peru.
