At Qoricancha Expeditions, we believe that an exceptional trek is defined not only by the destination but also by the comfort, safety, and quality of every moment along the journey.
As a fully local tour operator in Peru and an official Inca Trail Company, we invest in high-performance trekking equipment tailored for the demanding conditions of the Andes.
From the Classic Inca Trail 4 Days to remote high-altitude routes such as Salkantay and Ausangate, we carefully prepare every detail to ensure a safe, comfortable, and seamless mountain experience.
In the Andes, the right equipment makes all the difference.
Expedition Tents: Spacious and Weatherproof
The Andes provide stunning scenery as well as unpredictable weather.
We use four-season expedition tents designed for high-altitude performance and durability. These tents offer:
- Full waterproof protection against rain and humidity
- Advanced ventilation systems to reduce condensation
- Comfortable space for two trekkers plus gear
Each tent is inspected before departure to ensure reliability.
You’ll stay warm, dry, and well-rested, even in changing mountain conditions.
Premium Sleeping System for High Altitude Treks
Quality rest is vital for a successful trek.
We provide a complete sleeping system that includes:
- Down sleeping bags rated to -10°C (14°F)
- Thick, insulated foam sleeping pads
- All gear is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before each trek.
Optional upgrades are available for added comfort:
- Inflatable air mattresses offering hotel-level comfort
- Sleeping bag liners for additional warmth and hygiene
This system ensures deep rest and effective recovery after each day on the trail.
Dining Experience in the Mountains
Dining is a highlight of our trekking experience.
We provide a comfortable dining environment that includes:
- Spacious dining tents
- Tables and chairs for comfortable meals
- Sheltered spaces to protect from wind and cold
Our experienced trekking chefs prepare:
- Fresh, nutritious, and balanced meals

Our guides are trained in high-altitude safety and emergency response, so you are in expert hands throughout your journey.
Porters & Mule Support System

We combine performance with responsibility, ensuring we protect the Andes as we explore them.

This commitment ensures a high-quality trekking experience from start to finish.
