The Urubamba Mountain Range is part of the Central Andes of South America; home to Wakaywillke Mountain (Verónica, 5,919 masl), Sawasiray (5,810 masl), Chayñapuerto (5,610 masl) and Chicón (5,500 masl).
Likewise, the views of snow-capped mountains like the Apu Salkantay (6,272 masl), and others that make up the Vilcabamba Range will be part of this unique experience in the Peruvian Andes.
This expedition presents archaeological sites; that have a privileged view and connection with the pampas of Maras and Moray (Inca Greenhouse). You will have contact with local people who still keep their traditions and customs alive; and who will be part of this great adventure. Also; you will discover the existence of Andean deer, foxes, pumas, viscachas, condors, falcons, Andean geese, hummingbirds.
The thermo-mineral-medicinal waters, much visited by tourists and locals alike, are one of the natural attractions of this unexplored side of Lares.
You will be part of a unique expedition; since you’ll be able to practice mountain climbing at an easy level in the French scale.
IMPORTANT; (The height and distance data are referential, having a slight margin of error, because some data were taken by Google earth, GPS and barometer watches).
In the Peruvian Andes, there are a wide variety of peaks that require a good level of technique, and experience. The glacier Velo de la Novia is a great introduction to glacial climbing, it is quite a flat climb with good compact snow that make it a great first experience to this discipline. At the summit of the glacier you’ll experience clear views of the surrounding range and peaks such as the southeast view of Pumahuanca and southwest of the Sirihuani.
Sustainable tourism
So then; you can help to protect these mountains; lagoons, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, and the natural environment by the way we approach the mountain climb. We take care to minimise the footprint we leave & fill ourselves with the energy existing in the Sacred Apus that traditions say are sources of immense power. Your ascension will incorporate respect for the whole environment; along with good health and your own experience of high-mountain climbs.
