Laguna 69 or Lake 69 is one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. This stunning blue lagoon is situated 4,600m/15,000ft above sea level up in Huascaran National Park of the Peruvian Andes.

In this video, we climb to the highest elevation that we have ever been, and spend the night in one of the most incredible mountain huts in the world - Refugio Peru. Nestled among 10 snow-capped peaks, we were to surprised to find that it had a full restaurant, heaters and even HOT SHOWERS!
About this hike:
The Laguna 69 hike is typically done as a 24km/15mi there-and-back day hike. We chose to do the 2D/1N route solo and spend a night at Refugio Peru. This route let's you get to Laguna 69 much earlier than the main tours and you can have the place to yourself for a few hours. You also have the added benefit of seeing Laguna 69 from above, a view that few of the day-hikers get to experience.
- Total distance: 16.5km / 10.2mi
- Elevation gain: 1,160m / 3,812ft
- Max altitude: 4877m / 16,000ft
