We will gather at our meeting point to head to the east of the city of Huaraz. You will see other towns before reaching Pitec where you will begin the walk. During the trip you will be able to appreciate the vegetation of the Andes Mountains and you will have beautiful views of the Huamashraju, Cashan and Churup mountains, as well as the Cordillera Negra. During the journey you will be able to see the mountains melting which form waterfalls and rivers. After 3 hours of walking, you will reach Churup Lake, a beautiful turquoise lagoon with a cold temperature, located at 4480 m altitude. Here you will have a break to eat and take photographs. After this, you will return to the bus that will take you back to Huaraz.
