Tourism



 
 

Deep  valley   of    the  Peruvian   Coast, situated  at 160 Km. to  the  southeast  of Lima City  (35 Km of  detour  from   the South Panamericana highway). Rural  area where the dessert landscapes   meld    with   the    lushness  of  the   valley.  The valley  produces   diverse  nutritional  products  and  fruits  of temperate  climate  at 600 masl.  Visited  during almost  every month  of   the   year   by  the  local  tourism,  where  families and  young  people get together, to enjoy    an  excellent  area for  the   practice  of   any  adventure  sport.
The Rafting or Canotaje,   the  strong sport of  the area,  since they have a  river that  is  really  great  for  its  practice,  even though the mountain biking, cliff  climbing, trekking  and   of course  the  free  flight,  benefit   from  the  climate  and    the geographical   conditions of the area.




 
 

Flight

The  flight  in  this  place  is   dynamic and somehow  thermic, but different  from   the  majority   of   the  coastal   locations, here   the  winds  are  not   laminar  and they  are affected  by the   turbulence,   from     the    broken    thermals    and    the topographical   environment.  The  take  off  is  found   at 227 mts. above the valley and its 25 minutes walking distance.

 



 
 

The winds usually  arrive  from  09 :00 hrs. and on  and    you have  to be ready because  in the 20  min. lapse the  winds get faster, to the point  that  the takeoff   becomes  dangerous. Here you are able to do small distances but is highly  amusing
and the landings  are  pretty good even   though  the last three meters usually drop fast, thank Goodness the ground  is  tilled and ready for  cultivation which  is a blessing to the feet.



Travel Tips
The hotels   in  the  area   go from  $ 4  up to $ 45,   the meals are very reasonable but  not  because of this   less  appetizing, the  bus journey costs around $10  and  the  visit  lasts 2 days.
