On the car journey we stop at the beautiful turquoise and light blue twin lakes of Llanganuco
– one lake female and one lake male. The lakes lie between the mountains of Huascaran
and Huandoy and are surrounded by groves of ancient quenual trees.
This is a long & tiring day & should not be considered suitable for your first day hike at high
altitude, but is a good second or third day hike option
