Tourism in Pasco

In the jungle area, tourists can visit Oxapampa, the valleys of Palcazu, Pichis and Pachitea, as well as the Reserva de Yanachaga.

In the Andean zone, one of the main attractions is the Punta Marca ruins, with their stone buildings and irrigation canals. Other sights to see include the ruins of Yarus, Huancho, Bambamarca and Huarautambo ruins (where remains of the Inca Roads can be seen.)

Pasco has pretty lagoons such as Punrun, Huaracocha and Shegue. Hunting is popular here. The thermal baths of Villo, Chinche and Rabi are also in this area.

The Rock Woods of Huayllay are in this department. It is one of the most exotic places in the world. Erosion has given shape to strange figures such as the “the turtle”.
