Description

Great quality limestone cliff overlooking lake Antacocha with views of the Cordillera Blanca. Antacocha offers a few moderate multipitch sport routes (up to five pitches) as well as some single pitch routes. The altitude of the lake is 3900m and summit 4120m. You can walk down to the lake from the summit.

Getting There

From Huaraz, it's about 30 minutes driving south on the main road (3N). Before passing through the town of Recuay, you'll make a right turn (west) on a dirt road near the Recuay cemetery (you can ask locals for the road to the laguna de Antacocha). The winding dirt road takes about 20 minutes to reach the laguna de Antacocha where you can park and walk up to the base of the cliff
