Day one starts before dawn with hotel pickup, breakfast in Chivay, and time at Cruz del Condor before the long descent toward San Juan de Chuccho and an overnight at the Oasis of Sangalle. Day two climbs out to Cabanaconde for breakfast, then travels via valley viewpoints to Chivay for hot springs time before the high pass return. You can finish back in Arequipa or continue to Puno depending on the option selected when you book. ⭐ Why Choose Us The itinerary balances big canyon views with a clear overnight in the oasis, so you are not rushing the descent and ascent into a single day. Guides pace the trail sections and keep logistics moving between viewpoints, villages, and thermal stops. Shared and private options, plus Arequipa or Puno endings, make it easier to fit the trek into a wider southern Peru route without inventing your own transfers after a hard climb out of the canyon. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup in central Arequipa Guided Colca Canyon trek over two days Overnight at Sangalle oasis Meals as described on the itinerary (excluding Chivay lunch on day 2) Transport within the itinerary, including return options to Arequipa or Puno by selected option ### What’s not included Transport to your Arequipa hotel before pickup Lunch in Chivay on day 2 Hot springs entrance fees if charged separately Personal travel insurance Tips and personal purchases ### Kit list Sturdy walking shoes Hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen Layers for cold mornings and warm afternoons Swimwear and towel Water and snacks Small daypack and change of clothes for the overnight ## FAQs ### How hard is the trek? This trek is marked challenging. You should be comfortable with several hours of downhill and uphill walking on rocky paths at altitude, including an early start from Arequipa. Recent hiking experience helps, yet you do not need technical climbing skills. If you have knee, heart, or altitude concerns, ask the team before you book. ### Where and when is pickup? Pickup is from hotels in central Arequipa around 03:30. Confirm your hotel address when you book so the team can plan the route. Be ready in the lobby with your daypack packed the night before. Late nights and altitude both make the early start feel sharp, so sleep early if you can. ### Where do we sleep? You stay overnight at the Oasis of Sangalle after descending into the canyon. Rooms are assigned on arrival, with pool time before dinner. Bring swimwear and a towel if you want the pool. Facilities are trek oriented, so pack light and keep valuables to a minimum. ### Are meals included? Breakfasts, lunch on the trail day, and dinner at the oasis are part of the guided itinerary as described for this product. Lunch on the return day in Chivay is not included. Carry snacks and water for the climbs. Hot springs entry and any personal purchases are separate unless stated otherwise when you book. ### Can I finish in Arequipa or Puno? Shared group and private options are offered, with return endings in Arequipa or continuing to Puno. Choose the option that matches your onward travel when you book. Arequipa drop off is near the main square in the late afternoon. The Puno option arrives later to a central hotel. ### What should I pack? Wear sturdy walking shoes, sun protection, layers for early morning cold and midday heat, and bring swimwear for the oasis and hot springs. A small daypack with water, snacks, and a change of clothes for the overnight works better than a large suitcase on the trail. ### Will we definitely see condors? Condor sightings at Cruz del Condor depend on conditions. Guides allow time at the viewpoint, yet wildlife cannot be guaranteed. Even without a fly past, the canyon depth and viewpoints remain a major part of day one before the descent begins. ### Is there a minimum age? No fixed minimum age is published for this product. The trek suits travellers who can handle long walking days and an early start. Ask the team before you book for younger travellers or anyone unsure about fitness, so they can advise. ### What if weather affects the trek? Weather rarely stops the itinerary outright, yet safety can change timing or viewpoint stops. If a change is needed, the team will be in touch. Check messages from the team the evening before pickup so you have the latest instructions. ### What is included on the trail? Hotel pickup in central Arequipa, guided walking, overnight at Sangalle oasis, and meals as described on the itinerary form the core package. Lunch in Chivay on day two, hot springs entry if charged separately, and personal insurance are not included. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/ee6fbc3b-1a5d-407b-9d72-93c1180df582.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
