Rock climbing in Arequipa takes you to Chilina Valley, beside the Chili River, for a half day on routes that go from easy to challenging, all equipment provided.

Rock climbing in Arequipa is a half-day outing to the Chilina Valley, where the crag lies next to the Chili River. The routes suit climbers of different levels, so beginners and more experienced people can share the same day.

The meeting point is Mundo Alpaca, a short walk from the main square. An English-speaking guide takes you into the valley, with a first stop at a viewpoint over the volcanoes, the river and the pre-Inca terraces. There is no approach hike: after a safety briefing you start climbing right away.

The session lasts about three hours. You begin with easy climbs and move on to harder ones until everyone finds something that challenges them, and the crag offers many options for different skill levels. Afterwards the group is taken back to the centre of the city.

  • Pickup and drop-off downtown
  • English-speaking guide
  • Full climbing equipment, shoes and chalk
  • A snack

It is a good way to spend a few hours outdoors without leaving the city for a whole day.
