Sillar Route

DETAILED ITINERARY We will begin our tour with pickup from your hotel or from Arequipa's Plaza de Armas, heading to the Cerro Colorado district, where the renowned Añashuayco Quarries are located. Here, still in operation, we will witness the ancient process of extracting and carving white ashlar, carried out by stonemasons using traditional tools such as crowbars, sledgehammers, and chisels. Afterward, we will admire the imposing rock carving on the façade of the Church of the Society of Jesus, the work of skilled local stonemasons. We will continue with a hike of approximately 20 minutes through the mysterious Quebrada de Culebrillas, a narrow canyon formed by water and wind erosion over time, where we will observe petroglyphs and experience a sense of wonder and mystery. Finally, we will return to the city of Arequipa.
