PL- 04 HUARAZ
(4 Days / 3 Nights)
 Not only is Huaraz the starting point to explore the Callejon de Huaylas – rated as one of the finest areas in all of South America for its super mountain views, but it is also home to one of the oldest archeological sites designed by one of the most influential cultures in the Americas: Chavin de Huantar. Beyond the Callejon de Huaylas with its breathtaking scenery, unusual flora and fauna, lively colorful markets and traditional villages, we visit the fascinating temple complex of Chavin de Huantar where the dry stone masonry construction reflects sophistication not expected from a culture that flourished more than 3,000 years ago.
