About Rock Climb Peru

About Us

The Team

We are made up of international climbers and local guides who are excited to provide others the opportunity to experience the Peruvian Andes.

We first came together when members of the team came down to Peru and fell in love with the local culture and people. Being climbers, we wanted the chance to explore the vast mountain ranges and limestone crags, but soon learned how few local supports existed for tourists to rock climb here.

We reached out to the local community and joined together to provide this exciting retreat in the hopes that you will be equally excited for this unique opportunity to explore Peru!
