Chachani Volcano Trek 2 Days
Chachani Volcano Trek 2 Days
Chachani Volcano. This volcano is famous in Arequipa and in Peru for being considered one of the protectors of the city of Arequipa and because it is used to extract “Sillar”, a white volcanic stone that is used for the construction of churches and colonial houses. It is one of the reasons why Arequipa is called “The White City”. Climbing this volcano is like hiking in the mountains. It is not difficult or technical, but it is important to have a good acclimatization before climbing.
