Traveler Reviews of

Andes Lodge Peru

Rating: 100%

It´s in a great setting surrounded by beautiful mountains and is really close to the Huascaran National Park where you can visit the Llanganuco lakes. The village of Yanama where the lodge is set doesn´t see many tourists, so you can really see how people in the Andes live - most of the women wear traditional dress and all of the villagers speak Quechua as their first language. There´s loads of great hiking around the lodge and it´s virtually guaranteed that you won´t see another tourist whilst you are hiking. You can also rent bikes or go horseback riding.
