The most beautiful day trip from the picturesque town of Huancayo will take you directly into the interior of the small, yet quite glaciated Nevado Huaytapallana. This mountain range is also a regional protected natural area. This short trip describes a classic circuit in the best accessible southern part of the mountains. Along the way you will see a number of azure lagoons and beautiful more than five thousand mountain peaks in an almost deserted landscape.
