STUNNING HIGH ANDEAN LAKES OF KINSA COCHA 🇵🇪 BEST DAY TRIP FROM PISAC, PERU

Today we hike the high Andean Lakes of Kinsa Cocha, one of the best hikes around Pisac. Covid 19 and the Coronavirus pandemic has taken hold of Peru and all of South America, making it difficult to travel, but we are still allowed to get out in nature and see things like these High Pisac Lakes. These are stunning and you have to see this Kinsa Cocha hike. Search no more for the best day trip from Pisac, Peru. We are two travelers who have been stuck in Peru during the Covid 19 pandemic for many months. We're still here documenting the Coronavirus Lockdown and everything else in South America during this Pandemia time. Watch to see the best hikes in Pisac, Peru and see the beauty of Kinsa Cocha and the high Andean lakes. This is the COVID 19 Peru Travel Vlog.

Alex, They are sheared alpacas what looks like thinner. The Vicuña can only be seen in the very far distance because of it is an unsociable animal

[@carlosespinoza2453]

Alex, In the TiticaCaca Lake, there are several island to visit as Uros Island, Taquile Island and Amantani Island, but if you want an stunning hostel . . . Suasi Island

[@TheTravelbum]

Carlos Espino ooooh, good to know. That animal looked so much different, but that’s why

[@carlosespinoza2453]

Alex, sometimes it is hard to notice the difference, As vicuña is a shy animal , they are sheared in an special ceremony. The name is CHACCU, there are some video on youtube.. Peace

This yellow grass is called "ichu", it´s a a food for llamas, alpacas and vicuñas. This is the only plant could grow in there altitude.

[@carlosespinoza2453]

The Trees from the species Polylepis can grow at that altitude, but it all was deforested when Spain came to Peru

[@carlosespinoza2453]

*Message to People of Cusco* Most of those Hills had Tree before the arrival of Spain to Peru 🇵🇪 It is our duty to reforest with native trees as Chachacomo, Queñual, Pisonay, Aliso, Cedro de Altura, etc. They grow depending on the Altitude and type of soil. No more Eucalipts and Pine

[@baldwinangel1218]

Every time I go I tell my guide You all need more trees so I can breathe! Lol

[@carlosespinoza2453]

@@baldwinangel1218 hahaha

[@celdur4635]

Pine is pretty though.

[@dr.nosborn6330]

I suppose that you are also peruvian, but for the english speakers I will keep this language. The eucalipts (i haven't seen pines when I go to the countryside) are grown by the campesino comunities because they are profitable. Queñua has a ban in it's extraction and trade so ... , other ones I have no idea. But yeah, I bet there are initiatives to plant more of those trees, to prevent soil degradation for example.

[@carlosespinoza2453]

Dr. Nosborn, Pisonay is a beautiful tree and is only seen in some main square of some few towns Chachacomo or Chachacoma was depredated because it has a very hard wood, was used for making gears made of wood . Aliso usually grows next to a River. You are right we need more high elevation trees as Queñual for the preservation of water and soil . This way we will not see dry landscape around Cusco in this months as July , August & September , October

[@carlosespinoza2453]

The Alpaca at minute 14:48 has been sheared for obtaining the wool . I have always recommended to shear them, but not too much , leaving at least 1.5 inch of wool left behind = 4 cms

I hope you can go to Ollantaytambo too (a lot of ruins). A especial mountain Wakrapukra, etc. Omg, really really you have a lot of places to go. Now maybe it could be not to much green for the weather but, its amazing at the same time. Continue enjoying it.

Lovely video, you brought back many memories, I am a biologist who studied vicuña in the mountains for many years (the ones you pointed out are alpaca btw). It’s beautiful, so silent, such blue sky and blue water, thin clean air, cold wind, and incredible big-hearted kind people. I love it and miss it so much.

[@chinalamas]

Oh guys you make me cry today. When I was young I started travelling around my country as a travel agent but terrorism was in place so my mother begged me to stop travelling. Now when I see the places you are going I feel that I lost the opportunity to visit incredible places. Even I was many times in Cusco I've never been in these places. Peru has beautiful lakes, in Huaraz you can find some too. Stunning views as usual and your place looks a piece of heaven, very peaceful 😍🥰 looks like you have a looong honeymoon 😜

[@TheTravelbum]

Haha a loooong honeymoon

Soy peruano que radicó en Estados Unidos, están buenazo los vídeos que disfruten de la maravillas de Perú suerte.

[@wjesusaxl]

Quick tip on hiking at high altitudes. Avoid breathing in with your mouth as much as possible. It will dry out your throat and will make breathing much more difficult. Breath using only your nose. And when you feel exhausted just breath in deeper. It should get more oxigen into your blood compensating for the low pressure in high lands

[@josediaz-we4yw]
