Route overview

Most itineraries use Huaraz, Pashpa, and Musho as the key access bases for Vallunaraju, Ishinca, and Tocllaraju, with summit days linked by transfers rather than one continuous trail. Arrivals from the UK usually begin with london -> lima, coach or domestic transfer to huaraz before the route moves on between the mountain bases.
