Llamatrek: Olleros - Chavin The classic trek in Peru: hike with llama's through the Andes!
Easy 3-day trek from Olleros to Chavin, one of the most important archeaological sites in Peru, which we of course visit on the third day.
The steady gradual climb towards the Yanashallash Pass makes it possible to do the trek with lamas combined with donkeys. (Lamas carry less weight than donkeys) The main tempel in Chavin is dated back to 1200 BC and ist the most important pre-Inca culture in Peru. (As a comparison: Machu Picchu is from ca. 1470 AD!)
This trek combines adventure with culture, is relatively short and can be done with the traditional lamas. This combination makes it a very popular trek in the Huaraz region.
