Beautiful walk with an exciting ending - The place is so movingly beautiful. When you arrive at the location, you begin a walk on very steep terrain. There is the possibility of renting horses (80 soles to go up plus 80 soles to go down). I recommend the walk only if you are in good physical shape. I went on foot and I don't regret it. The reward is at the final destination. The lagoon is stunning. The breakfast offered is poor, but the lunch that takes place in the same place is wonderful.

Fantastic - challenging and stunning. - The schedule was kept, the trip to the start of the trail takes about 2h30 with breakfast in a pleasant and well served place. The trail to the mountain requires considerable effort, especially because of the altitude. But the effort is very worth it. The lagoon is stunning and the surrounding mountains are huge and imposing. Everything forms an incomparable landscape. The trip is so worth it!

A wonderful adventure - A wonderful and unforgettable tour. The difficulty of the walk is medium due to the high altitude and slope, up there the lagoon is very beautiful and our guide Giancarlo was very friendly from beginning to end, always asking if we were ok and encouraging us. Clever from Peru Grand Travel was also very friendly and helped me a lot.

Imposition of the lagoon! - The most exuberant place and movie scene I've ever seen, of the more than 25 countries I've visited. There are mountains, glaciers, the walk is worth it despite being difficult, the reward at the end is the incredible lagoon! The entire route is beautiful!

MAGIC EXPERIENCE - This tour was, without a doubt, the best! The trail is very steep and requires a lot of physical effort and mental preparation. But, throughout the journey, the landscape is very beautiful and, at the end, being contemplated with the crystal blue lagoon and the mountain covered in snow, is an indescribable feeling!
