Discover the beauty of Lake Parón, the largest glacial lake in the Cordillera Blanca and one of the most stunning natural landscapes in Huascarán National Park.

The route from Huaraz passes through the spectacular landscapes of the Callejón de Huaylas until reaching this extraordinary body of water with an intense turquoise colour, surrounded by some of the most iconic snow-capped peaks of the Peruvian Andes.

Upon arriving at the lagoon, you'll have time to explore its surroundings, relax, and admire a landscape dominated by mountains over six thousand metres high. From this privileged spot, you can admire the snow-capped peaks of Huandoy, Pisco, Pirámide de Garcilaso, Artesonraju —known worldwide for inspiring the Paramount Pictures logo— and La Esfinge, an imposing rock face highly prized by mountaineers from all over the world.

Those looking for a better view can take an optional hike of about an hour to a natural vantage point, which offers some of the most spectacular views of the lagoon and the Cordillera Blanca.

During the visit, you'll have time to rest, take photos, and enjoy the tranquility of this high-mountain setting, considered one of the must-visit destinations for lovers of nature and photography.

At the end of the experience, you will return to Huaraz after having seen one of the most iconic landscapes in northern Peru.

It is recommended to bring a packed lunch to enjoy during the excursion.
