What’s the most thrilling adventure in Peru?
You definitely can’t miss the exhilarating hike in the Andes Mountains!
📍Location: Huaraz to Laguna Rocotuyo
🏔️Altitude: Over 4300 meters
🥾Hiking Duration: 1-2 hours
💰Tour Cost: 70 sol
The premier hiking destination in Peru is undoubtedly Huaraz. To make the most of your trip, plan your route ahead of time. Upon arriving in Huaraz, gear up and join a guided tour. For those new to high-altitude hiking, the two lakes I visited this time are perfect: Laguna Rocotuyo and Laguna Paron. The average hiking time is about 1-2 hours, but at an altitude of over 4300 meters, even a short hike can be quite challenging.
Laguna Rocotuyo offers two stunning viewpoints:
First, the serene lake ⛵️. As soon as you step off the tour bus, the breathtaking view of the lake greets you. For just 10 sol per person, you can enjoy a boat ride on the lake, which is an experience not to be missed.
Second, the majestic glacier 🧊. After a one-hour hike along the lake, you’ll reach the glacier. Nearby, vast snow-capped mountains 🏔️ stretch as far as the eye can see, creating a truly awe-inspiring landscape.
