  • Turquoise lakes along the trail
  • 47 km done in four days at an easy trekking pace
The Santa Cruz Trek is one of the most wonderful treks in the Cordillera Blanca, and I love sharing it. Over four days we walk the 47 km trail at an easy pace, with big panoramic views of the mountains around us. Along the way you'll pass turquoise lakes set among the peaks. The trekking is easy, so you can take in the scenery rather than race the trail. Get in touch for dates, group arrangements and anything else you'd like to know before booking.
