Day 1. Garagocha Lake.
Summary. A warm-up hike. I recommend combining this day with the 4-5h taxi ride from Huaraz to Rondoy.
Elevation Gain: 400m Elevation Loss: 0m Time: 2h Distance: 3km
Ascent: Walk up the Rondoy Valley for about 2km then pick your way through the cliffs below Garagocha Lake via grassy ramps. Top out on a shoulder above the lake and then descend to camp about 50m north of the lake, between some boulders.
