Alpamayo Classic Trek – 10 Days
Overview
This is an interesting route because it affords the classic view of the north side of Alpamayo, which was voted āthe most beautiful mountain in the worldā. The trek wanders through beautiful landscapes composed of snow-covered peaks, lakes, and green Andean vegetation. It crosses many passes and visits a classic high Andean village, Colcabamba, whose inhabitants lead a traditional way of life maintaining their ancient customs. It is rated ādifficultā, but rewards the traveler with a sense of wonder and discovery that will not soon be forgotten.

It is a great place to shop not too far from New York. We took the bus from Port Authority and traveled through the countryside to get there.
