Its summits, each one most beautiful than the next, will satisfy the most demanding of all. Numerous treks can be organized in this region.

Departing point of numerous treks into the White Range, Huaráz is located at an altitude of 3 091 meters above sea level. Even if Huaraz was built with few charm, the mountaineering atmosphere is guarantied. The entrance to Huascarán National Park is at the doors of Huaráz... Created in 1975, the administration of the park mains at conserving the fauna and the flora as well as maintaining the good state of the trails.
