Description
Very obvious boulder field before the valley with great snowy peaks of Palcaraju and Vallunaraju. You have to stop on the road 14A, before it turns right, and walk up to your left on a small hill. The big boulders will guide you pretty well. If you are alone, it takes a while searching with a guidebook in your hand, but it's not impossible to find the one you need. The guidebook doesn't have a great map, but it'll give you a good image of what you should be looking for.
Getting There
The best is to get a guidebook: HUARAZ, The climbing guide. There are all the boulders, climbs and difficulties you will need. It's a great place if you stay in Churup Mountain Lodge, or Lazy Dod Inn and need to get acclimatised, or get a rest day.
There is no trouble with private properties. You can even walk around the Lazy Dog Inn and ask them, but even without it it's fine. They are very friendly.
