Our first stop will be after 2h (78km), in the community of Paucarpata (CUSIPATA) where we will rest and buy water or energizing drinks, snacks, cereals, etc. and also enjoy our buffet-style breakfast. Afterwards we will continue on our road transport for around 1h where we will arrive at the PHULAWASIPATA base camp and prepare to undertake the hike, a climb of approximately 2h (3.5km). During this journey we will have the opportunity to see the impressive Hatun Ritti glacier (4825m), the different varieties of South American camelids and the wonderful reflection of the landscape accompanied by the Puka Qocha and Qomer Qocha lagoons.
