    It's a more difficult excursion than the one presented on the platform. Because of that, we didn't realize it until we were already arriving on the bus and the tour guide began explaining it to us. He, by the way, warns us about the dangers of the excursion without any encouragement; at one point, it even seemed like he was trying to convince us not to do it. In any case, we really enjoyed it and completed it in record time. I would definitely do it again, but perhaps with another tour company.

Lake 69 Trip

Between 5 and 5:30 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Huaraz before heading by bus to Huascaran National Park, an hour and a half away.

Once there, we'll get out of the vehicle and begin a fantastic hike. During the ascent, you'll encounter the colorful flora and fauna endemic to this area of Peru. If you're lucky, you may spot a puna partridge or Andean condor. Did you know that the Incas believed that the latter was immortal?

After walking for 3 hours, we'll finally arrive at our destination: Lagoon 69. As soon you set eyes on this beautiful lake of intense turquoise waters, you'll completely fall in love with it. There, you'll have an hour of free time to explore its surroundings and enjoy a well-deserved lunch (not included).

If you're brave enough to dive into the water, beware as the temperature is very cold! Afterward, we'll return to the entrance of the park, where the bus will be waiting to take us back to the hotels.

The estimated time of arrival in Huaraz is 8 pm.
