The Humantay Lagoon is located at 4,200 meters above sea level in the district of Mollepata, 25 kilometers by road from the town of Mollepata. Then a 3 km walk is made to reach the destination.
If your thing is to enjoy nature and trekking, this place is ideal. Humantay is a snow-covered mountain that is part of the Andean mountain range, including the majestic Nevado Salkantay and Humantay, which, when melted, gives rise to the lagoon that, due to its unique turquoise color, generates the interest of foreign and national visitors. The walk to the place will make you feel a sense of peace and tranquility thanks to its natural beauty that you will find.
With a mystical air, the Humantay Lagoon is visited by shamans and tourists from all over the world to leave offerings to the Pachamama, a deity that represents Mother Earth in the Inca culture. According to the residents, the Humantay mountain is the youngest son of the Apu Salkantay, and they would be in charge of rationalizing and distributing the water that comes down from its snow to the populations that live at the foot of these impressive snow-capped mountains. Humantay awaits you!!
