We had a wonderful trip, a challenging, well-organised trek. Together with Yanina (guide), Jaime (cook) and Angel (logistics), we had a very stimulating time with many lasting impressions. A thousand thanks for that! The acclimatisation (with Pablo, among others) in the run-up to the actual trek was very good and full of insights. During the Huayhuash trek, the mix of “challenge” and “relaxation” was ideal. The on-site support from Koseth & Eric (among others) was excellent.
The beauty of the glaciers and lakes left me breathless. The connection with nature and myself was profound. This trip taught me to value natural beauty and trust myself. A must-see destination for adventure and nature lovers!"
When walking among the majestic peaks, you are amazed by the beauty of nature, the dazzling landscapes, turquoise lagoons and the animals of the area, the best thing about the trip was to enjoy with my family this unforgettable experience, the guides were super friendly and helped us to make this trip unsurpassed
