RAIN SEASON
December to March. Some days blue sky with good conditions for trekking up to Misti volcano - During the rainy season easily we can find lot snow close of the summit and for this section of the trail we need to use ice axe, crampons, rope and harness but everything depends how high is the snow up there - Of course we recommend to bring good rain gear as waterproof backpack and hiking boots, and others.
ADVICE FOR CLIMBERS - TREK DIFFICULT
To have good acclimatization, good physical conditions and good quality winter clothes. One day before all the climbers will have meeting with the mountain guide at our office or in the hotel, who will give a BRIEFING about this climb and also you can check the quality of the climb gear will be used on the mountain.
THE TREK TO VOLCAN MISTI IS ONE OF THE HARDEST TREK EVEN DURING THE WET AND DRY SEASON - THE WAY UP IS VERY SANDY AND STEEP MAKING HARDER, COLD, HOT, DUSTY, WINDY AND YOU WILL AWARDED WITH NICE VIEW AROUND - TO ALL CUSTOMERS WE RECOMMEND TO BE IN GOOD SHAPE TO GET THE SUMMIT OTHERWISE OUR CAMP STAFF COULD NOT HELP YOU.
