Illusion, Pequeno Alpamayo, Huyana Potosi

If you’re interested in climbing in one of the most venerated ranges in the world, then join us for a trip in Bolivia’s Cordillera Real. We climb a fantastic trilogy of the region’s peaks. We start with Illusion (16,897ft/5150m) for acclimatizing, and then we move on to Pequeno Alpamayo (17,482ft/5330m). Alpamayo is a majestic mountain offering steep and fluted faces or a long route along one of its ridges. Both these beauties will prepare us for Huyana Potosi (19,996ft/6090m), an exposed and proud summit. Weather and time permitting, we might just have a go at Illimani (21,293ft/6490m), the highest plum to be picked in the Real! For the truly ambitious, we can extend our trip to climb any of the other of dozens of summits in the Cordillera Real.

Cost includes: All hotels and huts, airport transfers, all food and fuel, all group equipment (tents, etc.), all permits and fees, all ground transportation. Cost does not include: Airfare, visas, airport taxes, excess baggage, food, alcohol, soft drinks, laundry, tipping, equipment and items of a personal nature.

 

Cerro Aconcagua

Aconcagua stands 22,841ft (6962m) tall, making it the highest mountain in the world outside Asia! An ascent of this giant gives you a true taste of high-altitude mountaineering, but on the relatively moderate Polish Glacier Route. This is a great introduction to big-mountain alpinism!
