Hike the Santa Cruz Trek in Peru

Trip ideas

Duration(in days): 7

From: Lima

To: Lima

Take on the challenge of the Santa Cruz trek in Peru on this guided trek with camping. Nestled amongst the snowy peaks of the Andes, the spectacularly scenic Cordillera Blanca range has 33 summits topping 5,400m and this trek is the most popular way to experience the mountainous beauty here. Despite its beauty, this trek is less well-known than others in Peru, meaning it has far fewer visitors and offers a rare solitude for such a stunning place! The 50km trail can be hiked over 3 or 4 days and our itinerary offers the more relaxed, 4-day camping option with the first and last nights spend in the Huaraz. This fairly high altitude trek can be quite challenging but you incredible reward is the stunning landscapes and unforgettable encounters with friendly Andeans living in these remote parts of Peru. If you want to experience an off the beaten track route considered one of the most beautiful in the world, and in many ways, more rewarding than the most popular ones the country has to offer, the Santa Cruz trek is the perfect choice!
