Choquequirao Trek Weather
The Andean weather can be unpredictable,
despite the sharp divide between dry and wet seasons. The dry season runs from May to October or
November; the rainy season goes from December through April. Nevertheless, Choquequirao lies in the
forested fringes of the Amazon basin, where showers can occur at any time of
year.
Therefore, even in the “dry”
season, your daypack should always include full rain gear (jacket and
trousers). Daytime temperatures vary greatly, with daytime highs ranging
from 10ºC/50ºF to 32ºC/90ºF and nighttime lows ranging from 10ºC/50ºF to a cold
4ºC/40ºF, though seldom much lower. The floor of the Apurimac Canyon gets very
hot during the day.
