Travel Guide

Once in Peru, you can’t miss Laguna Parón, an incredible lagoon located close to the city of Huaraz. It is located at 4.200m above sea level, which means this is literally breathtaking. Once you get there, you can choose between paddling across the glacial lake or hiking to the viewpoint. #Adventure

A great hike to acclimate to the high altitude. It's absolutely stunning and because it's less touristy than Laguna 69 and Churup, you can really feel like you're there by yourself. You can go via public transportation, a tour company from Huaraz, or Ponys Expeditions in nearby Caraz.

They charged our client, even though we sent them the bill from Expedia. Clearly they don't know what they are doing. Not happy at all with them, and want a reimburse from Expedia
