The experience

The route works as a stepping stone to altitude. At 7 to 10 hours, it is long enough to let your body adapt to the elevation without the technical demands of a serious climb. You start with private transport from your hotel, hike to the Austria Peak summit, and stand in front of the Condor Head and Condoriri mountains: the full royal mountain range visible from one vantage point. A guide who speaks English, Spanish or French walks with you the whole way.

Lunch is included and can be prepared vegetarian if you need it. The guide is there to pace the day around how your body responds to the altitude, not to rush through a fixed schedule. Transport back is part of the booking, so you do not arrange a separate ride down.

What’s included

• Private transportation from your hotel.
• a live guide for the full trek.
• lunch (normal or vegetarian option available).
