One of the best regions in South America for mountain climbing, Ancash is another lesser-known gem of Peru that you ought to know about ahead of the return of international travel.
The region of Ancash has a bit of everything. Just north of Peru’s capital city, Lima, Ancash sits on the Pacific coast, where it boasts pristine white sand beaches and turquoise surf.
