After about two hours we reach Base Camp, at about 5300m, set up camp, and walk up to the pass above (another 120 metres higher) to get accustomed to the altitude. Temperatures here range from +5 to -15 degrees Celsius.

Day 2

We start the climb to the summit at around 2:30 am, after a warming cup of coca tea. We climb up to the first pass, cross the north face of Angel (usually snow-covered), from where the city of Arequipa can be seen. We then ascend the south face of Fatima, cross another short stretch of snow, and make the final climb to the summit of Chachani. The ascent takes 5-6 hours, and the ascent back to base camp 2-3 hours.

We leave the equipment at base camp, and only take a day pack on the ascent. At base camp we pack up camp and descend to where the transportation is waiting for us. We arrive back in Arequipa between 2:00 and 3:00 pm.
