    ATVs at Laguna de Huaypo and Salineras de Maras


    Description

    Overview
    Experience an ATV adventure, passing through beautiful landscapes and picturesque villages full of vibrant culture. Delight your eyes with a visit to Laguna de Huaypo and the Salineras de Maras.

    Lagoon de Huaypo
    It's home to a wide variety of fish and birds. It is approximately 1.5 km long by 800 m wide. It is ideal for water sports. According to one local legend, the sun god asked Manco Capac for his twin sons to accompany him in his sunset. When they went to find them, they discovered that the son who walked the farthest had become Laguna Huaypo and the daughter, Laguna Piuray. They are located at an altitude of 3,345 m.a.s.l.

    Maras Salt Mines
    These are salt mines whose exploitation dates back as far as the Tahuantinsuyu. Residents channel the saline water that emanates from the ground of a spring called Qoripujio into pools where, due to the effects of the sun, it evaporates, leaving salt on the surface, which is then treated and sold on the local market.
