Most of the way is not very steep or technically difficult although the altitude does make it a challenge. There can sometimes be some short steeper sections which we would help you with. We try to arrive on the summit to see the sun rise. About 5 hours to the broad summit where there is plenty of room to walk around, appreciate the amazing surrounding mountains and take photos.

From the summit fantastic views of the close by peaks of Huascarán (6768m), Chopicalqui (6354m), Huandoy (6160m), Pirámide (5885m), Artesonraju (6025m).

Peru is known for having very stable periods of weather during the Andean Winter (May – Aug). The remainder of the season is dominated by the rainy season.

While climbing and trekking in Cordillera Blanca you will encounter a wide range of temperatures; from freezing nights, to snowy and windy conditions, to bright sunshine intensified by the high altitude. In one day you may experience temperatures below zero, then daytime highs of 50-70ºF range with intense solar radiation. You will need everything from shorts and a t-shirt for your time in the town of Huaraz to being fully clothed in down expedition jackets on summit day. This wide fluctuation in temperatures makes it important to bring everything on the equipment list.
