Slow, steady hiking is the best thing here. The oxygen content in the air drops to <50%. If you start too fast here you will regret it bitterly. NEVER sit down. Due to the altitude air, the circuit will collapse when you get up and you need oxygen cylinders to get up again. (The guides always have something with them)

The most beautiful place in Perù. Really amazing, strange and gorgeous.

Set this this place in front of you and then turn your head to left to see Ausangate glacier. It is very strange to see desert and glaciers so close. Wow!

Be there before 8 am to avoid the crowd (multi-day trek recommended)
