Santa Cruz Trek
Llanganuco–Santa Cruz (4 days)
This is the most popular (and commercial) route in Huascarán National Park. It’s about 47km (29 miles).
You’ll see two beautiful lakes: Taullicocha, Hatuncocha and Ichicocha. The trail is between 2900-4750m (9,514-15,584ft). From the highest pass Punta Unión (4750m) you can see ten major peaks, including the famous Alpamayo and Artesonraju.
Most people start in Cashapampa, though you can also start at Vaquería, as noted on the map above.
It can also be combined with the Alpamayo Trek, as noted on this second map.
