Activity itinerary

Ruta Del Sillar
  • 5h
  • Admission ticket not included
We’ll pick you up from your accommodation in Arequipa early in the morning to begin the Sillar Route. Our first stop will be a scenic viewpoint offering panoramic views of the volcanoes surrounding the city. Next, we’ll visit the Añashuayco Quarry, where you’ll see local stonemasons at work and admire the impressive canyon formed by sillar stone extraction. We’ll then head to the Culebrillas Ravine, a narrow water canyon with walls up to 20 metres high, where we’ll take a short 20-minute walk through its peaceful interior. Our final stop will be the petroglyphs carved into the stone—mysterious figures whose meaning remains unknown. We’ll return to Arequipa around 1:00 PM.
