Description
We will travel through volcanic terrain to the Chapi Sanctuary and discover the faith of its pilgrims. In addition, we will discover the famous Uzuña lagoon. A most complete excursion from Arequipa!
We will pick you up from your hotel in Arequipa at 7:00 am and board a minibus that will take us to the Chapi district, an hour and a half away. During the trip, you will admire the beautiful landscape of the Andes, full of zigzagging trails and volcanoes, such as Pichu Pichu, Coropina, Misti or Huaynaputina.
After crossing all this volcanic landscape, we will reach the Sanctuary of the Virgin of Chapi, a place where many faithful come on pilgrimage. We will discover the reason for this veneration while we contemplate the great esplanade, the tower or the chapel of Reconciliation. You will be amazed!
We will return to the minibus and descend from the sanctuary in the direction of the Yanaorco Dam, also known as the Uzuña lagoon. There you will have free time to have lunch with their typical trout dish and to enjoy on your own a quiet boat ride through the Uzuña lagoon.
We will end the excursion arriving in Arequipa at approximately 5:00 p.m.
