Puno and Cusco have the largest herds, and in the high mountains it's common to share the terrain with herds of several hundred animals during a trek.

About

This photograph was captured on a morning after fresh snow fall above a turquoise lake called Laguna Sibinicocha. You can tell the one in front is a llama by its long, curved, banana-shaped ears, its longer, narrower face and its size. Llamas stand about 47 inches at the shoulder and can weigh around 250 pounds. The alpacas behind it are smaller, with short ears, round faces and the thick, shaggy fleece they're prized for. Peru holds about 87% of the world's alpacas, most of them in the southern highlands, and sharing a pass with a herd of several hundred is a normal part of a day's walk.

Andes Llamas brings the gentler side of the high mountains into your space. Its perfect for animal lovers who appreciate these curious creatures that roam the lands of the Peruvian Andes.
