Vallunaraju Climb

Vallunaraju is one of the few peaks in the Cordillera Blanca that can be climbed from Huaraz in two days. It is suitable for both first time climbers and also experienced climbers. A good peak to include at the end of your trek or for acclimatization for climbing bigger peaks. Although graded as an easy climb, the high altitude and long and in places steep snow slopes do make Vallunaraju a physically demanding climb. It is also necessary to carry all equipment up to Moraine Camp on the mountain on a steep trail. Porters carry tents, food, climbing rope up to Moraine Camp and back, but you need to carry your own personal gear.
