Free parking directly at the famous waterfalls of Huancaya. 200 m outside the village.

Campfire site, restaurants and limited shopping in the village, hiking trails, no sanitary facilities, 3600 m above sea level (cold nights), probably free of charge (but it cannot be ruled out that someone will collect a small amount in the evening), safety very high.

Huancaya (not to be confused with Huancayo) is a beautiful little village in Yauyos National Park. It offers excellent hiking opportunities, a museum with several mummies and spectacular archaeology, which is still largely unexplored. But most tourists come because of its turquoise waterfalls and the colonial stone bridge.

Surf beach in the small town of Huanchacho. In the whole northern part of the road directly at the beach one can stay overnight, at least in the low season. No facilities. Dogs allowed. Safety ok. Many food possibilities.
