How to dress for the excursion to the Humantay Lake
Located in the majestic Peruvian Andes, the hike to Laguna Humantay requires being prepared for changing conditions and physical activity. Here are some key recommendations to make the most of the experience:
- Layered clothing: Temperatures vary throughout the day, so wearing layers is essential. This way, you can adjust your outfit according to the weather.
- Comfortable and functional pants: Opt for lightweight, quick-drying pants that provide freedom of movement. Hiking pants or leggings are ideal for this activity.
- Appropriate footwear: Wear hiking boots or sturdy shoes with good traction and ankle support. Avoid sandals or open-toed shoes.
- Essential accessories: Bring a hat or cap, sunglasses and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun at high altitudes. It is also advisable to bring gloves and a scarf or bandana for extra warmth during the coldest parts of the day.
- Comfortable backpack: Make sure you have a backpack that fits your body well to carry water, snacks, and extra clothing. It is important that it is comfortable and distributes weight evenly to prevent fatigue.
Other important articles:
- Sunscreen and sunglasses: The sun is intense at high altitude, so it is essential to protect yourself with sunscreen and appropriate sunglasses to avoid excessive exposure to UV rays.
- Snacks and water: There are no concession stands along the trail, so bring plenty of water and some snacks to keep you hydrated and energized during the hike.
Dressing appropriately and carrying the essentials will ensure that you enjoy your adventure to Humantay lake to the fullest.
