Upis Lake & 7 Lakes of Ausangate

The trek is 2 days in duration, with one overnight stop en route.

The trip includes 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, and 1 dinner.

The total distance is about 27.27 km. The terrain is high-Andean, with lakeside trails, moderate ascents and descents, and high-altitude conditions.

The best seasons are during the dry months in the Andes (typically May to September) when the skies are clearer and the trails are more stable.

It’s a moderate trek: you should be physically fit and comfortable hiking in high-altitude terrain, though it does not require technical climbing.

Entering the Ausangate area has a cost of 20 soles, but it is covered in the price of this tour.

On our 2 days hike from Upis to Pacchanta the groups go from minimum 2 persons to 8 persons.
