What to do and see in Puno, Puno Region: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks

November 11, 2021 Carley Gatson

Llamas, sheep and alpacas roam the plains of Puno, a port city in southeastern Peru. Their fleeces are used to make the area’s signature textiles, which make excellent souvenirs. You’ll do a lot of walking here, as many of the streets are too steep for cars. But the climbs are worth it for the excellent views of Lake Titicaca. Take a boat to the Floating Islands or get up close and personal with the four-legged locals at a llama farm.

Condor Hill (Mirador de Kuntur Wasi)

Reviewed By Julionator - Vancouver, Canada

The hike up the stairs (roughly 600) would be easy if it was on a low elevation town. However at >3800 ASL, it is a bit of a challenge. Just be sure to have a day of rest when you get to Puno or take it really slow on the way up. The reward once you reach the top will be worth the effort. Alternatively, I do believe that there are taxis that will drive you all the way up.
