Sightseeing

Message from Nicole Carter

Lake Parón is the largest lake in the Cordillera Blanca, nestled in the Peruvian Andes. Surrounded by majestic snow-capped peaks, it offers a stunning turquoise color due to high lime concentrations in the water. Originally used for hydroelectric purposes, the lake now serves as a popular spot for day hikes and camping. With its breathtaking views and easy access, Lake Parón is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers in Peru.
