Great day adventure for those in decent shape.

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a great time. Need to be in shape because the trail is steep, a bit loose and the starting altitude is ~11,000 ft. Guide were fantastic! Views were excellent. Did this in November so the trail was dry. Also did the 8am slot to avoid starting in the heat of the day.

Two day trek up volcano Misti.

Published on Jul, 2024

I booked a "two day trek up volcano Misti" directly through the operator (Peru Adventure Tours). My guide and I camped on the mountain overnight and continued early hours next morning to the summit. I made it to over 18k feet but unfortunately did not summit. It had been communicated beforehand that I would need a tent, "mattress" and sleeping bag. The "mattress" was one inch thick and barely made any difference. The sleeping bag was too small for me (and I'm medium size), I could only get the zipper 3/4 the way up, and it smelt. For those reasons I wasn't able to sleep, which made me not feel hungry or wanting to eat before going for the summit, which made me feel drained of energy. I believe that if I had gotten some sleep, I would have been able to summit. If I were to do it again, it would be just the trek starting at midnight, without camping on the mountain (you can request that). My guide, Karol, was absolutely amazing! She is 100% the real deal. Very experienced with mountaineering, and very knowledgeable. She did everything she could to make my experience awesome, and with a constant smile. She has a very sweet personality but don't let that fool you, she is a bad ass on the mountain!

Beautiful hike to Volcan Misti

Published on Jul, 2024

The tour guide was too. We had a beautiful view and on the way back a great sunset. I liked that there were no other tourists.

An awesome experience at Misti. Highly recommend!!

Published on Jul, 2024

This trek was one of our top highlights visiting Arequipa. After our driver Leandro took us through some non-trivial terrain to reach the trail head, the two of us hiked with our guide Marco Antonio for roughly two hours up to ~4150m. After this we took a great path down through a basalt field. We really liked the flexibility of this hike, as there was no fixed distance we needed to reach, however we were able to really challenge ourselves and face the enormity of Misti up close! The views throughout are awesome. This is a great complement/alternative to Colca that is only one hour away, much more intimate (we did not run into anyone else on the volcano!), and slightly more challenging, depending on your fitness level, experience at higher elevation and how hard you want to push. I highly recommend this trek!
