Misti Volcano 2-Day Climbing Trip

Misti volcano is one of the most famous volcano in Peru. Its shape is pyramidal, it has two craters and it means a lot to the locals, since it has been considered the protector of the city since the time of the Incas. The Incas had great respect for him and left offerings and human sacrifices, some of which have been found in the small crater. Finally climbing this volcano is not difficult or technical, it is like doing a mountain hike, but it is important to have acclimatization before going up.
