The Hiking & biking Guide
The next most popular mountain region in Peru after the Inca Trails near
Cusco, the Cordilleras Blanca and Huayhuash boast some of the most spectacular
scenery in the Andes, and most accessible high altitude trekking and biking in
the world. Perfect pyramidal peaks, gargantuan ice falls and turquoise alpine
lakes are all easily reached from Huaraz, the region’s capital and centre of
tourist comforts.
This practical guide contains over 50 detailed route maps and descriptions
covering 20 hiking trails, more than 30 days of paved and dirt road cycling,
and information about mountain biking in the area.
