Coropuna is the highest Vulcano in Arequipa and the third highest summit in Peru, after Huascaran (Cordillera Blanca, or “white mountain range”) and Yerupaja (Huayhuash mountain range). The first person to summit Coropuna was Hiram Bingham in 1911, the same person that re-discovered Machu Picchu.
Coropuna’s difficulty is not due to technical climbing, but because of its altitude.
The best time to climb in the Arequipa region is between April and September, during the Andean summer.
During the rest of the year, it is also possible to climb, but it is more likely to have some bad weather.
