Pastoruri Glacier
Breakfast in the morning at hotel depart at 8am, driving south from Huaraz. At 25km we will visit Recuay province, continue to Ticampampa, Catac and to Pachacoto. From here we will turn east side on an unpaved road, enjoy wonderful landscapes of highlands full of straw and cold wind and traditional with sheep herders.
After 15km we will stop next to a small lake called Patococha for bird-watching (wild ducks, andean goose caracara birds and others). Then the next stop will be at Gasified water stream with drinkable natural sprinkle water flowing underground. Then we continue to next stop to view the enormous flowers of PuyaRaymondi, and a changing colour small lake at Pumapampa. The changing color is an effect of the radiation of the sun and mineral containing rocks inside the water.
