On the way to Pastoruri

Pastoruri glacier






Tourists lost interest since the glacier split in half. Access to the glacier is almost impossible these days. Tours have nearly ceased, and the glacier is visited only for studying purposes.

School above the 4.000 m


On our way to the Pastoruri glacier (or ex-glacier, since it’s not even called a glacier anymore), we stopped at the great school at more than 4.000 m high. The children seemed undisturbed by the altitude sickness.
