Trek Santa Cruz

"The best of my time in Peru was this! Recollecting these images while doing the Guide made me feel very nostalgic about the mountains. It was a magical experience to disconnect from the world out there while being surrounded by majestic high peaks and glaciers, some of them reaching altitudes of 6.000 meters high! It was my first time seeing peaks that high and it was impressive. A gift from nature to me, and also could be to you if you come here. This trek is easy and not very demanding - at least it wasn't for me. But, of course, it requires you to be fit. Try not to adventure yourself in a long hike if you don't feel fit enough. It can be dangerous. Specially at those altitudes, as you can get altitude sickness and then the situation gets worse. I reacted perfectly to altitude, but my friend had complications and felt very bad one night. So be cautious about that. If you don't feel safe, always go with an organised tour and with experts of the area. I lived this amazing experience with the local tour company Peru Adventures Travel and they were awesome! "

"A great trek if you have less time to spare. This trek is only 3/4 days and is still beautiful. It is much easier to do this trail unguided if you have a tent/rent one!"
