HATUN MACHAY
Welcome to the sacred playground of Peruvian rock climbing! Hatun Machay — which means 'Big Cave' in Quechua — is a magical stone forest sculpted by time and wind. Just two hours from Huaraz, it’s a place where climbing, history, and nature come together in the most incredible way.
This is Peru’s biggest and most iconic sport climbing spot, with over 250 routes and endless bouldering problems spread across a surreal landscape of volcanic rock towers. Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned crusher, Hatun has something for you.
But it's not just about climbing — Hatun Machay is also great for hiking, biking, exploring caves, or just soaking in the ancient energy of this mystical place.
