Pastoruri Glacier: Climate Change Route (Full day)
Duration
8 hours
Overview
-
The Pastoruri Glacier is located at 5000 m.a.s.l., even so, it is one of the few glaciers in South America that is easily accessible (reached on foot), where special equipment is not required to reach it.
It is located within the Huascarán Biosphere Reserve and Huascarán National Park, thus providing it with a very particular ecosystem.
It is located at a higher point than Mont Blanc (highest peak in the European Union).
It is considered a route where you can see the effects of climate change and global warming.
Possibly in a few years it will no longer be possible to visit.
