Responsible Tourism During Lares Trek Service
Operating Responsibly: Commitment to Social Welfare and Environmental Respect
At SUNRISE PERU TREK, we firmly believe in conducting our treks with a responsibility that goes beyond merely following regulations; it is about fostering a deep respect for the environment and the communities we interact with. Our commitment to responsible tourism encompasses a holistic approach aimed at safeguarding the breathtaking landscapes we traverse and preserving the rich cultural heritage of Peru. This means not just ensuring our campsites are clean and free of litter, but also engaging with local communities in a manner that values their traditions, livelihoods, and contributions.
Responsible tourism paves the way for creating better places for both residents and visitors. By prioritizing the hiring of local individuals—including porters, cooks, and horsemen—we directly contribute to the economy of mountain villages, enhancing their well-being. Moreover, we continually strive to improve working conditions across the tourism industry while involving local individuals in decision-making processes that impact their lives. Our approach ensures that our treks not only minimize negative economic, environmental, and social impacts but also generate tangible benefits that uplift local communities, making every journey with SUNRISE PERU TREK an enriching experience for all.

We recognize the immense responsibility we have as a trekking company operating in the fragile ecosystems of the Andean region. It is our duty to protect these magnificent landscapes for future generations, and we take this commitment seriously. We practice sustainable tourism by adhering to strict environmental guidelines during our treks, such as avoiding single-use plastics, properly disposing of waste, and following Leave No Trace principles. We also support conservation efforts through partnerships with local organizations that work towards preserving Peru’s natural beauty.
In addition to minimizing our ecological footprint, we strive to educate our staff and trekkers about responsible practices and encourage them to be stewards of the environment. We believe that by raising awareness and promoting sustainable practices, we can help preserve the natural wonders of Peru for years to come.
