At more than 6000 meters above sea level, one feels able to touch the sky. That is why climbers from all over the world love Cordillera Huayhuash, where six of its peaks are enveloped, literally, in the clouds.
The most challenging peak is Yerupaja, while other demanding mountains include Siula Grande and Rondoy. And then there are the lakes, which when seen from above resemble incredible emerald green eyes.
