Huascarán National Park

Situated in the Cordillera Blanca, the world's highest tropical mountain range, Mount Huascar&aacute;n rises to 6,768 m above sea-level. The deep ravines watered by numerous torrents, the glacial lakes and the variety of the vegetation make it a site of spectacular beauty. It is the home of such species as the spectacled bear and the Andean condor.
