Peru trips overview – Explore Peru with Exped Tribe!

Peru is a fascinating country that undoubtedly takes the hearts of explorers and nature lovers by storm. Although Lima, the capital of the country (with its 11 million inhabitants) and the coastal regions are often visited, Peru holds some of the most impressive landscapes in the world in its majestic mountainous regions. Peru is the ideal destination for adventure travelers for several reasons:

One of the most outstanding mountain regions in Peru is undoubtedly the Cordillera Blanca, which stretches along the western border and offers a breathtaking backdrop for outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing, skiing and mountaineering. Among the peaks of this majestic mountain range stands out Alpamayo, a spectacular mountain with its characteristic pyramid shape that attracts climbers from all over the world. Huascaran is another imposing highlight of the Cordillera Blanca and, with a height of 6,768 meters, is the highest mountain in Peru and South America.

In addition to Alpamayo and Huascaran, there are other significant peaks in Peru that adventure seekers can explore. Artesonraju, a challenging mountain near Huaraz, also offers an exciting mountaineering experience and is offered by us as part of the 3 Peaks Expedition in the Cordillera Blanca (Alpamayo, Huascaran, Artesonraju).

The Peruvian population is as diverse as the country’s landscapes. Here, indigenous cultures meet Spanish influences to create a rich cultural mix. The hospitality of the Peruvians is warm, and their cuisine world famous. One of the most popular dishes eaten by locals is ceviche, a refreshing dish of raw fish marinated in lime juice and spices.

The beauty of the Peruvian landscapes is overwhelming. From the majestic peaks of the Andes to the deep canyons of the Colca Valley and the mystical ruins of Machu Picchu, Peru offers a wealth of exploration opportunities. The variety of natural wonders and biodiversity in Peru are awe-inspiring, offering unique travel experiences for adventurers of all experience levels.
