Peak Union

Peak Union is the highest point of the gorge of Santa Cruz and the highest point which is reached when performing one of the four days trekking. Tourists know it as the Cordillera Blanca, the Santa Cruz trek. The Peak Union is located specifically at 4,750 meters of altitude and can be accessed from Santa Cruz or from Huaripampa. From here you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the whole area. On one side you can see the entire Santa Cruz gorge, and on the other side, you can see all of Huaripampa. In addition, the Punta Union is a great place for contemplation as it is close to major mountains in the area such as the Alpamayo or Artesonraju, which delineates the steep valley glaciers.
