After picking you up from the hotel (optional), we will begin this adventure towards the town of Pitec. During the way, we will pass through traditional Quechua towns like Unchus and Llupa, where you will be able to appreciate their adobe houses and their fields of crops.

We will start the trekking after the registration to enter to the Huascaran National Park. Ascending for an hour and a half, we will reach a rocky section with beautiful waterfalls. Then, we will climb a quite challenging path for about 45 more minutes, which will take us to the wonderful Lake Churup (4,450 m.a.s.l.).

Along the route, we will have the opportunity to watch a great biodiversity of flora and fauna. We will walk around this lovely lake with crystal waters, and admiring the amazing landscapes, with plenty time to take pictures and take a well-deserved rest.

The Huascaran National Park was declared as a Biosphere Reserve in 1977, and as a World Natural Heritage in 1985 by UNESCO. This protected area houses the highest snow peaks in the world, and has many glacial lakes around like Lake Churup.

Nature and Wildlife Hiking & Trekking Mountains

The trekking excursion to Laguna Churup includes round-trip transportation from Huaraz, a specialized mountain tourism guide, and entry permits to Huascarán National Park. Throughout the tour, strategic stops will be made to appreciate the landscape and take photos. First aid assistance and guidance on the local flora and fauna are also provided. It is important to bring your own food and water, as these are not included. It is recommended to be aware of the weather and wear appropriate clothing to fully enjoy this adventure.
The trek to Laguna Churup is an adventure experience that requires a moderate-to-high level of fitness. The climb to an altitude of 4,450 meters is a challenging hike, especially if you are not accustomed to hiking at high altitude. It is recommended that you have previously acclimatized in Huaraz for at least one or two days. Participants should be in good physical condition, with no health problems that affect their ability to engage in prolonged physical activity. It is recommended that you consult a doctor if you have any doubts about your ability to participate in the trek.
For the trek to Laguna Churup, it`s essential to bring the proper equipment to ensure a safe and comfortable experience. We recommend sturdy, comfortable hiking shoes, a light backpack, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and layered clothing to adapt to possible weather changes. It`s also advisable to bring plenty of water and energy snacks. A raincoat or poncho is useful in case of possible rain. For those who want to capture memories of the trip, a camera is ideal. Also, don`t forget your identification and necessary permits.
The best time to trek to Laguna Churup is during the dry season, which runs from May to September. During these months, the weather is more predictable and trail conditions are optimal, making for a safer and more enjoyable experience. Rainfall is less frequent, allowing for unobstructed views of the mountains and the natural landscape. However, keep in mind that this is peak season, so it`s advisable to make reservations in advance. For those who prefer less crowded areas, April and October are also good options.
Proper acclimatization is essential before beginning the trek to Laguna Churup due to its significant elevation. It is recommended to spend at least one or two days in Huaraz to allow your body to adjust to the altitude. During this time, it is beneficial to take light hikes and stay well hydrated. Avoiding alcohol and caffeine can aid in adaptation. A carbohydrate-rich diet is also beneficial. Listening to your body and getting adequate rest is crucial to minimize the effects of altitude sickness. Consult a doctor if necessary.
