ITINERARY

Support vehicle will lift us to the lake after 2 hrs. trip. Then we head Downhill, experimenting the quick change of vegetation and scenery as we exit the highlands through the glacier valley. Soon, an endless chain of villages and likeable farmers who greet our passage towards the base of the valley. Now, the sandy route demands a moderate technique until arriving back to Caraz.
