Parks Places Map
Parks in Peru:
Paracas National Reserve
Plaza de Armas de Ollantaytambo
Check out the local food stalls around the plaza for delicious, budget-friendly meals. I found an awesome spot selling freshly made empanadas that were super tasty and only a couple of soles.
Salinas y Aguada Blanca National Reserve
Mandor
Bosque del Amor
Manglares de Tumbes National Sanctuary
Plaza Kusipata
Take a stroll to the nearby artisan markets after visiting the plaza. I wish I had done this sooner; it's a great way to support local artists and find unique souvenirs. Remember to bargain a little!
Cerros de Amotape National Park
I recommend packing snacks and water; there's not much around once you're deep in the park. You'll save money and avoid the hassle of searching for food later on.
Orellana Pumaqchupan Park
i recommend checking out the trails around 9 am. you'll beat the midday heat and get a chance to see wildlife while it's still active. plus, it’s a lot less crowded early on!
Sierra del Divisor National Park
If you're planning to hike, bring a good pair of binoculars. Wildlife spotting is incredible, and some of the best views are off the beaten path. Trust me, you'll want to see the unique species up close!
