About this tour
After picking you up from the hotel (optional), we will begin this
adventure towards the town of Pitec. During the way, we will pass through traditional Quechua towns like Unchus
and Llupa, where you will be able to appreciate their adobe houses and their
fields of crops.
We will start the trekking after the registration to enter
to the Huascaran National Park.
Ascending for an hour and a half, we will reach a rocky section with beautiful waterfalls.
Then, we will climb a quite challenging
path for about 45 more minutes, which will take us to the wonderful Lake Churup (4,450 m.a.s.l.).
Along the route, we will have the opportunity to watch a
great biodiversity of flora and fauna.
We will walk around this lovely lake with crystal
waters, and admiring the amazing landscapes, with plenty time to take
pictures and take a well-deserved rest.
The Huascaran National
Park was declared as a Biosphere
Reserve in 1977, and as a World Natural
Heritage in 1985 by UNESCO. This
protected area houses the highest snow peaks in the world, and has many glacial
lakes around like Lake Churup.
