Peru Hiking Tours made for you

Arequipa

The ‘white city’, crafted from volcanic rock, has views of the Andes and El Misti volcano. Built mostly from white volcanic rock, the ‘white city’ has panoramic views of the majestic Andes mountains. Visit Santa Catalina Convent and take hikes in the surrounding mountains.

Ausangate Trekking

One of Peru’s rainbow mountains, so-known due to the vivid and unusual stripes formed from colourful clay earth, Ausugate mountain is best explored on foot. Follow ancient routes across the plateau, staying in lodges along the way.

Chachapoyas

Translating to ‘Cradle of Gold’ in Quechuan and often referred to as the sister site of Machu Picchu, this less-visited Inca site is believed to have been an important religious centre.

Colca Canyon

Colca Canyon is deeper than the USA’s Grand Canyon. Hike between villages and scour the skies for sightings of mighty Andean condors.

Cusco

High-perched Cusco is the starting point for many journeys to Machu Picchu, though the charming city has a fascinating culture and history of its own. Explore the cobbled lanes, visit the cathedral and taste street food at Plaza de Armas.
