Itinerary description

English below Portuguese

As ruínas de Willkawain são muito interessante, mas a vista do mirante da Laguna Radian não tem a beleza de outras paisagens andinas. De qualquer forma, é um bom local para fazer o primeiro dia de aclimatação.
Eu fiz essa caminhada para me aclimatar para os circuitos Huayhuash, Alpamayo e Ausangate, você pode ver as fotos e textos desses circuitos através dos links abaixo:

Willkawain Ruins are very interesting, but the view from Radian Lookout is not as beautiful as it should be in the Andes. Anyway, is a good place to do the first acclimatization day.
I did this short hike to acclimatize for Huayhuash, Alpamayo and Ausangate Circuits, you can see photos and descriptions in the pages below:
