Misti Volcano 2 Days

Description

Itinerary Overview:

Your journey begins with a departure from Arequipa at 8:30 AM in a rugged 4×4 vehicle, taking you to the starting point at 3,500 meters. From there, you’ll embark on a scenic 4-5 hour hike to base camp at 4,600 meters, where you’ll spend the night under the stars.

Summit Day – A Dawn Like No Other:
We’ll wake before sunrise for an energizing breakfast and begin the challenging yet rewarding ascent at 3:00 AM. As you climb, you’ll witness a breathtaking sunrise from the slopes of Misti Volcano—an experience our clients consistently rank as the highlight of the expedition. Reaching the summit (5,825 m) after 5-6 hours, you’ll be rewarded with unparalleled views of the volcanic crater, an iconic iron cross, and the awe-inspiring Ring of Fire—a chain of Peru’s most legendary volcanoes, including Chachani, Ubinas, Sabancaya, Ampato (home of the Juanita mummy), Coropuna, and Hualcahualca.

Thrilling Descent & Return:
The descent is an adventure in itself—gliding down volcanic ash and dunes makes for a fast, fun, and effortless journey. In just 1.5 hours, you’ll reach 4,100 meters, where your 4×4 awaits for a comfortable return to Arequipa by 2:30 PM, with a drop-off at your preferred location.
