Description Suggest change

The best rock climbing in the country they say! Lots of steep, high-quality limestone and tons of potential.

The area is currently divided into two main areas, both of which are listed here.

Getting There Suggest change

You can take a bus from Cusco to Checacupe for 10 soles (which takes about 2 hours) and then get a taxi or combi up to Pitumarca (15 min).
