CLIMBING CHACHANI 2 DAYS AND 1 NIGHT TOUR

Nevado Chachani is the highest of the mountains near the city of Arequipa in southern Peru. Its name means “skirt” in Quechua, and a female character is normally attributed to the mountain in local legends.
As a result of the very low precipitation in the Arequipa area, Chachani does not have a permanent ice cap or glaciers. Climbing Chachani is popular, though the altitude is considered highly challenging for those who are not fully acclimatized.

Daily Departures from April to November
Per Person Prices: US$575 (private service)
Per Person Prices: US$285 (shared service)
Based on a party of two
