This adventure tour agency is run by professional guide Vlado Soto and comes highly recommended for their experience and knowledge. The company specializes in trekking excursions to the Colca and Cotahuasi Canyons, mountain biking, adventure travel, naturalist trips, rock climbing and river rafting.  Colca Trek also organizes tailor-made treks for private groups.  

A few sample treks include:

The Ampato Ring (3 days and 2 nights)

This trek starts in the Colca Canyon around the sacred Ampato and visits lakes, little volcanoes and is an unforgettable hike for mountain lovers searching for something different.

Volcanoes Valley Trek (5 days and 4 nights)

This complete expedition circuit covers the Colca Canyon to the Volcanoes Valley with stunning views every day. 

The Source of the Amazon (4 days and 3 nights)

This incredible expedition will take you over mountain passes, through amazing mountain scenery and authentic Andean villages, to hot springs and to the most remote source of the Amazon. 

The small shop sells camping equipment, topographical maps, and fuel for stoves, and rents mountain bikes. Vlado Soto speaks English and is an excellent resource for climbing and trekking advice.

Traveler Reviews of Colca Trek

best colca hike

Rating: 100%

I like the big experience of the owner of COLCA TREK Vlado Soto, AND they take care of the environment. The only problem is that you have to wait for a spot because they have small groups.
