What you'll do

We will visit the village of Salpo, one of the 10 districts of Otuzco, make this
stop for an Andean breakfast and then visit the Plaza de Armas
45 min
We will make a stop at the Mirador, which is located in the foothills of Ragash
Hill, from where you can observe the peak of Huascarán. We will take photographs with the exposed letters of Balcón del Cielo and with its beautiful high Andean landscapes of the whole province of Otuzco.
30 min
We will visit the Town of Carabamba in the Province of Julcan, here we will make
a stop for lunch and also give a time of 15 minutes to visit its Plaza de Armas.
1 hour
We will visit one of the most important reservoirs, vital for the agriculture of
the district and a unique trout hatchery in the region. In addition we will be able to appreciate the full extent of the Artificial Lagoon and be able to capture beautiful photographs with Andean ponchos on site.
1 hour
We started a 1 hour walk back and forth, to make the route of the stone forest
As we make the route of the stone forest through each of the main and secondary areas we can find different forms of stones : of animals, people, vegetables, simulating a series of images that with a little imagination build, in each person who sees them, a series of experiences of the zone of pre-Inca culture. In the main square there are different simulations in which are the famous “parents” dressed in their robes; we continue the tour and we meet “the bride and groom”, “the couple” singular figure which simulates bonds of love between a man and a woman; later we can see “the hands of God” about to start a prayer. In addition, the wild flora is appreciated, mainly the ichu, typical of the area.
1 hourAdmission included
In this viewpoint you can see the twilight above the cluster of clouds that give
the impression of a pompous white mattress. We will take photographs with Andean ponchos, sunset toasts and dance to Andean music among the whole group.
