The National Reserve of
Salinas and Aguada Blanca
The goals of this Reserve are
to protect the wild flora and fauna of the region.
In this reserve there are lakes, volcanoes and high mountains
such as Misti (5821 m), Chachani (5075 m) and Pichupichu
(5440 m). The reserve also counts on typical species such
as the Yareta (Azorella sp.) the queñual (Polylepis sp.)
and the keapo (Parastrephia lepidophyla), used by the population
as fuel.
In this area live different types of mammals and birds for
example: the Taruca (Hippocamelus antisensis), the wolf
(Pseudalopex culpaeus) and the vicuna (Vicugna vicugna).
The most attractive places to observe the birds and flamingoes
are the Laguna de Salinas and Laguna del Indio. We can find
vicunas in Pampa Cañahuas and Tocra, and the Colca canyon
in the province of Caylloma. |
