Chachani Volcano 2-Day Trip

Day 1

At 7:30 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Arequipa in a jeep and set off for our adventure. We'll arrive at Pampa Cañahuas, located at the rear of the Chachani Volcano, where we will prepare our equipment and receive basic tips from the guide.

We will spend the next 2 hours gradually ascending to the base camp at an altitude of 17,060 feet (5,200 metres). Upon arrival, we'll set up tents and have lunch consisting of soup and pasta or canned food.

After nightfall, we will have herbal tea and rest.

Day 2

Our second day begins at 2 am. After preparing for our adventure and enjoying a breakfast, we will begin our climb to the summit of the Chachani Volcano.

Weather permitting, we aim to reach the summit around 5 am following an intense hike. There will be free time to have a snack and enjoy views of surrounding volcanoes, including Coropuna, Ampato, Hualca Hualca, and the active Sabancaya, Misti, and Ubinas.

After this break, we will start our descent to base camp with several stops to rest. Upon returning to the starting point, a jeep will take us back to Arequipa, with an expected drop-off at your hotel around 7 pm.
