From the parking lot it is only a short climb to the lookout point. But it's worth it! Turquoise water and snow-capped mountains all around. As always, the weather has to play along, of course. There is a toilet on site, nothing else.

The tour to Laguna Parón is well suited for acclimatization (e.g. on the 1st day in Huaraz). You get quite high (approx. 4200m), but you don't have to achieve top performance and you can already estimate whether you can manage other, higher tours.
