Make Your Peru Trek a Clean Up Trek
& Save Up to 20%!
Our Clean Up Treks are part of our commitment to Responsible Tourism and ecological travel in the Andes. These are fun group departures that will include litter pick up as we hike through beautiful, remote areas. The team will work on a rotational basis so that you’ll still have time to enjoy the beauty of your surroundings.
Want to know more? Read more about our Clean Up Treks on our blog, and also hear from past Handy in the Andes veterans for a real sense of what it’s like!
At Apus Peru, we pack out all our own trash on each and every trek we operate. However, many other trekkers do not. For this reason – and in the spirit of ecological travel in Peru – we organize Clean Up Treks throughout the year. We do Clean-Up Treks along our most popular alternative trekking routes, but especially Choquequirao and Lares.
Do you have a group and want to do a Clean Up Trek? Contact us! We’re happy to organize a custom Clean Up Trek departure on almost any day of the year.
Garbage on the trail is a real problem for Peru treks.
Remote areas of Peru are often located far from formal garbage disposal facilities, and litter can be a common sight long otherwise pristine land. In Cusco, the popularity of trekking can make this problem much worse, making eco travel a challenge.
Simply let us know at booking that you want to make your trek a Clean-up Trek and we’ll give you a discount on the normal trekking price! You’ll also receive a stylish t-shirt as a souvenir of your contribution towards keeping the Andes mountains healthy and happy. It’s our way of encouraging a bit of ecological travel in Peru.
