Detailed Itinerary: Day by Day
Day 1:
Arequipa - Base Camp
Our Chachani Volcano ascent adventure begins with pickup from your hotel in Arequipa, heading from this beautiful White City towards the slopes of Chachani Volcano.
Around 8:30 am, we will arrive by vehicle at the starting point of the hike, at approximately 5,000 meters above sea level. After a short rest, we will begin the trek—about three and a half hours (3 hours and 30 minutes) of ascent—enjoying stunning landscapes along the way. Afterwards, we will have a light box lunch before continuing to our base camp.
Upon arrival at base camp, we will settle in and later enjoy a delicious light dinner. We will also have a friendly briefing about the next day’s adventure as we prepare to reach our goal: Chachani Volcano.

Day 2:
Angel Peak - Fatima Peak - Chachani Summit - Arequipa
For our second day, we will rise very early around 1:00 a.m. to tackle the three peaks. After warming up with hot coca tea and a replenishing breakfast, we'll leave base camp behind with our day packs to begin the ascent to icy Angel Peak (5,825m), our first challenge. (As snow conditions on Chachani vary throughout the year, crampons and ice axes might be necessary depending on the month). Once we reach this point, you'll enjoy a breathtaking view of the White City of Arequipa from above.
We'll then continue ascending along a zigzag route, crossing the south face towards the second peak, Fatima (5,900m). At last, the main summit comes into view for the final climb of a 6 to 8-hour journey to Chachani's Summit (6,080m). From the top, the entire Arequipa region unfolds in a stunning panorama spanning the snow-covered Coropuna, Hualca Hualca, Sabancaya, and Ubinas peaks, the majestic Misti Volcano, and the Salinas Lagoon. After enjoying the summit, the descent back to base camp takes about 2 to 3 hours. We will pack up our camp and meet our 4x4 transport, arriving back in Arequipa between 2:00 and 3:00 p.m.
