Itinerary description

Hiking done day 10th August 2023.

This day was Chill day to enjoy the Campsite and we decided to hike to the Lagun nearby. Easy day.

We hiked to the Lagun using a alternative trail that the locals use to fish. We did not use the regular trail because we would have to pay 70 Soles as an entrance to pass through this trail, even though we would not continue all the way to the trail, we would only use that to reach the lagun nearby.

I recorded the path only to Go, but to get back we used a path that does not need to Cross any River, you Just have to stay always more on the right side of the River.
