The lagoon shallap is a beautiful lagoon of glacial origin that is located closely together at the end of the valley of Shallap in the White Mountain range of the city of Huaraz.

We were transferred with vehicle by a lapse of 1 ½ hour, passing by small towns like Ichoca, Coyllur and finally we arrived at the remote town of Jancu, that this at the end of the highway.

The agriculturists of this town are very amiable and cosy, and of them quechua speaks much only. At the end of the valley, last the 20 minutes he is a little lofty but all the route is on a visible way.

The lagoon this to a height of 4250m. The lagoon this on the foot of the gigantic mountain of San Juan and Huatsan.
