2 DAYS CHACHANI
MOUNTAIN CLIMBING

 Overview

Chachani is a volcano located in southern Peru. 55 km from Arequipa city despite its considerable height, snow is very scarce on its summit, due to the extreme atmospheric sequence prevailing on the western slope of the Andes in that region. Likewise, the summit has been affected by global warming, to such an extent that in 2008 it lost its last glacial remnants.
The ascent to the summit is not extremely difficult and can be done by people who are new to the world of mountaineering. Therefore, it is very popular for tourists, although the altitude is a problem for those who are not fully acclimatized. At certain times of the year it is even possible to see the Peruvian coast on the horizon.
Chachani has 6075 m.a.s.l. is About 3 hours away from the City and can only be reached with a 4WD vehicle. Chachani means "skirt" in Quechua and it is divided into three picks Chachani 6080m Angel 5825 m and Fatima 5900 m.
Chachani usually has some covering of snow and ice, and it's necessary to take ice axe and crampons also plenty of warm/thermal clothing as temperatures can be extremely cold on the mountainside

Our expedition to climb Chachani Volcano pick you up at the reception of your hotel.

(Puno city at 6:00am) get more information about this option.

We take a journey for about 3 hours but once we get into the vicuña National reserve we stop to enjoy this beautiful mountain scenery cover with a blanked of unique flora and fauna and some groups of wild south American camels very often walking in search of food and water, we take pictures of everything that surrounds this magical place, and after a bit more than one hour we reach the nearly 5000m.a.s.l here we stop to prepare ourselves and organize the equipment that we have to carry, also it will be the place for us to eat a box lunch before we star hiking  to the Chachani’s base camp.
The beginning of the hike look very easy since this part of the mountain is not steep at all, but do not trust yourself since we will be hiking over 5000 meters on a volcanic terrain which will present us certain obstacles along the way, such as a 20 minutes section of big boulders that we have to cross slowly, so let our Mountain tour guide sets the best rhythm to have an adequate progress, after about 1.5 or 2 hours we enter to Chachani base camp situated at  5215m.a.s.l. (It is normal that during the hike we can feel something like, a light shortness of breath, so remember this is not a competition and do not forget that rehydration is very important, drink water before and during the expedition to CHACHANI).once at the base camp take you time to rest, we have plenty of time to set the tents up later.
only for the ones who want to explore more, you can take a walk around anyway it is free time, but don't push yourself or stress too much, talk to your tour guide, (communication is always very important), this day the mountain tour Guide of Chachani Expedition has to cook for the group (he will prepare high-calorie foods so that our body regains energy for the next day climb). Later on enjoy the hot meal, while the tour guide talk about the program for the next day, and try to sleep early because usually the next day we start early too.
(The tour guided will decide that point depending and different circumstances).
do not forget before you enter inside the tent to have look of the sky the milky way is amazing, observe a lot off constellations, have a good night…!

(Usually the temperature all year long is ok during the day, but in fall and winter as soon as the sun goes the temperature comes down dramatically, stay warm).

We enter into the crater then we do the last part, 15 more minutes for this the final climb to reach our goal, the 6075 meters of Chachani Summit.
