Trujillo to Huaraz

We stopped in the town of Pariocoto for the night before we took on the trail to Huaraz. Two Catholic Priests from this town were killed by the Shining Path in the 1970's. Their death helped reduce the power of the Shining Path in this area, and they are entomed in the Church here.

The road to Huaraz

The trip to Huaraz rewarded us with a beautiful view of the snow capped mountains.


When we left Tujillo, we stopped at the Huaca de la Luna, a pyramid that had been covered by a sand dune until it was discoveredi in the 1990´s.

The "road" to Huaraz included several surprises along the was.
