Olleros Trek
Olleros–Chavin (3 days)
This 3 day trek is lower in elevation than most treks in the area and great for training for a longer trek. The trail is 37km (23 miles) and the altitude is between 3450-4700m (11,319-15,420ft).
The trail is an old route used by pre-Inca cultures to connect the Callejón de Huaylas and the Conchucos valley. You can hire llamas in Olleros or Canrey Chico to carry your gear. Llamas have a much lower impact on trails and are much better than mules in so many ways.
