Huaraz Mountain Biking Experience
Here's a few shots from the start of the mountain bike experience we offer at Andean Summit. This trail is called Punta Callan, around 30km west of Huaraz.
We hire out mountain bike for 40 Soles per day, a very competitive price for the city, and we can provide a wealth of information regarding trails within the area.

Huascaran South on the top with Peru Expedition season 2020
Expedition Huascaran South (6768 m)
Nevado Huascarán: Huascarán is the highest peak in Peru. This mountain has two summits: Huascarán North (6655 m) and the main summit, Huascarán South (6768 m). Many climbers dream of reaching the high summit of 6768 meters. Huascarán offers multiple routes to arrive at the highest point in Peru. Technically, the climb is not difficult, nevertheless, due to its elevation and risk of avalanches, it is a serious endeavor. Observation: Huascarán South Summit (6,768 m) The conditions on all mountains change every year; Huascarán is no exception. The glacier between the first and second camps is receding, and as such, some years it is a challenge to get from high camp 1 to high camp 2 due to the crevasses and the large avalanches that may fall in the primary chute. Nevertheless, an ascent of Huascarán is, without a doubt, one of the highlights of mountaineering in the Andes.

Amazing Andes | Trekking in the Cordillera Blanca | Peru
First, we went to one of the best treks in the world, the Santa Cruz trek. This amazing trek through the Cordillera Blanca is surrounded by magnificent peaks, turquoise lakes, and spectacular glaciers.
Then, we climbed up to 5400+ meter ice peak mountains which were an unforgettable experience.
Then our journey continued straight into the heart of the Peruvian Amazon rainforest so subscribe and stay tuned for the next episode!

Peru: Expedition Nevado Alpamayo (5947 m), the most beautiful mountain in the world | with president of the 7 Summits Club, Alexander Abramov.
Peru is one of the most impressive places for mountaineering in the world, and Huaraz is the mountaineering capital of South America, close to beautiful mountains both in the Cordillera Blanca and Huayhuash.
In May 2015 we experienced one of the most memorable moments of our lives, climbing the most beautiful mountain on the planet, Nevado Alpamayo, 5947m or 19,511 feet tall.
This expedition was a reconnaissance mission for famous Russian climber and president of the seven summits club, Alexander Abramov, and his wife, Ludmila Korobeshko, along with local Peruvian guides Eric Albino and Octavio Salazar.
The expedition lasted 6 days, and every moment we were surrounded by amazing Andean animals, and landscapes such as lagoons, rivers, and the snow-capped Artesonraju, which inspired the logo of PARAMOUNT PICTURES.
Until base camp we have the support of cargo donkeys for carrying our gear, and from base camp the porters will help carry our equipment to high camp.
The summit assault takes 6 hours on average, ascending a steep, 450 meter wall, and our descent takes about 3 hours.

A photo trip to Huaraz Peru. Laguna 69, Laguna Paron, Pastoruri Glacier and Chavin!
brettbodkinsphotography.com
This video shot by my wife ended up as a collaboration between us both. I contributed some still photographs and a few video clips. We couldn’t edit it as well as we wanted to because our computers couldn’t handle the task. The videos were all shot in 4k (though it doesn’t look like it here) and hope to eventually do a better edit. Hope you enjoy the video and go to my website if you’d like to see more of my work!
Did you ever get the chance to go somewhere so amazing that you’ll never be the same? My wife and I got the chance to do just that with the main goal to take awesome photos. After lots of planning and growing anticipation the day had finally come! We were going someplace truly “once in a lifetime”!
Flying over the Andes mountain range is something you’ll never forget. In many places, the elevations are nearly double those found in the Rocky Mountains. Huaraz Peru sits at around 10,000 feet in elevation nestled between the snow-capped Cordillera Blanca and the Cordillera Negra mountain ranges. The views of the mountains in the background make a pleasant atmosphere for this cool little city! The city is busy year-round as a popular destination for trekkers, mountain climbers, mountain bikers, snowboarders, and more! The surrounding mountains regularly reach altitudes of 15,000 feet, so taking an extra day or two to acclimate is probably necessary and you’ll probably find some cool hangouts and meet some cool people! The area is home to the world’s highest tropical glacier field with none more famous than Pastoruri glacier!
Pastoruri glacier was a great acclimatization hike after a day or two of rest. The landscape changes many times during the two-hour drive to the drop off point. The altitude tops off at about 17,000 feet but the 1-hour hike is fairly easy and the views near the top are very rewarding! You can even take a horse halfway up the mountain if you’re not feeling your best!
With glaciers come glacier lakes and Paron Lake is a good choice during acclimation due to the limited hiking necessary and the beautiful turquoise water! Operators will drop you off right beside the lake however you will probably still exhaust yourself by the time the day is done. There is an overlook to hike to and waterfalls nearby as well as free roaming cattle to keep things interesting. The views are simply stunning!
Our next destination was Laguna 69! The hike is a much harder three-hour hike reaching altitudes of about 15,000 feet, but the bright blue waters make it all worthwhile! Staying more than a few minutes and you will probably see and hear the ice breaking off and falling into the water, a sad reminder of the steady retreat of the glaciers in this part of the world. The hike down is much easier than the hike up and so it affords you the chance to take in and appreciate the beautiful scenery! Having run out of water halfway through the trip we decided to fill our water bottle with water from the stream here. If there’s anywhere left in the world safe to drink the water, it would be here. We didn’t get sick and we haven’t died yet a month later, so it was probably okay!
Our final destination during our trip to Huaraz was to Chavin de Huantar, a ruins site constructed around 1200 B.C. by the Chavin (a pre-Incan people). It was an elaborate site with much carved stone that gives an indication of the amazing stonework that would show up later with the Incan civilization (including their masterpiece Machu Picchu)! You’ve probably all seen the famous stone faces the site is famous for (even if you didn’t know where they come from). We even got to explore a tunnel system built underneath the main temple complex that was constructed complete with natural light and elaborate ductwork for air ventilation. The site has left intact only one of the carved stone heads in its original location on the outside of the wall. The rest are being protected in various museums including the one in the city of Chavin itself which is where we would finish the day.
Back in Huaraz for our last day in town, there are plenty of great places to eat, drink, and meet other people. There are many international foods available and local craft beers to try as well as Peru’s pisco sours. There were many things that we did not get to do, but a week is just too short to do it all (especially if you’re not already acclimated upon arrival). The shortest multi-day trek is the Santa Cruz trek and it takes four days to complete. You will need more than a week if you plan on doing this trek in addition to any of the things we did during our trip. A good excuse for me to go back again! Hope you enjoyed sharing in this experience and feel free to contact me for more info!
