CHACHANI MOUNTAIN CLIMBING

Chachani is a volcanic group in southern Peru, 22 kilometres (14 mi) northwest of the city of Arequipa. Part of the Central Volcanic Zone of the Andes, it is 6,057 metres (19,872 ft) above sea level. It consists of several lava domes and individual volcanoes such as Nocarane, along with lava shields such as the Airport Domes. Underneath Chachani lies a caldera. During the Pliocene and early Pleistocene, the volcanic group produced large ignimbrites such as the La Joya, Arequipa Airport and Yura Tuff ignimbrites; afterwards the volcanic group proper grew in the caldera until about 56,500 years ago. There have not been any eruptions during historical time, but the volcano is considered to be only dormant and due to its closeness to the city of Arequipa is considered high risk.

Lake Titicaca in Puno

Lake Titicaca in Puno is one of the essentials on any trip to Peru. Why?

 

Titicaca is the highest navigable lake in the world and is located at 3,800 meters above sea level. Its blue and very calm waters are easily confused with the beautiful sky of the city. A trip to heavenly paradise!

 

Likewise, you can experience experiential or rural tourism in the famous floating islands, which are made from totora (a typical aquatic plant of the area):

 

To get to the islands of Uros, Taquile and Amantaní -the most famous of the place- you have to travel by boat for approximately 2 hours. These islands are inhabited by ancient descendants of the Aymara, where families have built their own houses, markets, and schools on totora.

 

These communities demonstrate their deep roots in their ancestral culture, with their native languages, clothing, dances, typical foods and way of life in general. Likewise, they live from fishing, handicrafts and still do trade through barter (exchange that was carried out in Inca times).

 

What's more, your experience can end with an offering to Mother Earth, which the inhabitants will show you.
