Laguna Paron Refugio | Hostel

incredible drive up the canyon and kind of what you expect of a refuge. great views and friendly folks. the van transport drivers are aholes but that is everywhere in Peru. they view you as lost revenue and taking their parking. oh well right.

In addition to basic rooms they sell meals of traditional Peruvian dishes. Approx 10s per meal. No other supplies for sale.

Actualmente el refugio son 20 soles la noche. El dinero es para la comunidad de campesinos de la zona, asi como los 5 soles de entrada al parque. No hay agua caliente ni electricidad. Por la noche hay un par de horas de luz gracias a un panel solar.
Solo hay señal de telfono con la compañia Movistar y es muy debil. Hay sabanas y mantas pero es recomendable llevar su propio saco de dormir. Os dejo el telefono de Mario que trabaja en el refugio. La mejor hora para llamar es a las 7am y a las 16pm. 978 843 618

Merece la pena quedarse a dormir para poder disfrutar del lugar. Hay varias rutas de trekking muy bonitad. Se puede ir bordeando el lago hadta una segunda laguna, la laguna Artesoncocha o subir a una laguna congelada.

Looked OK but wouldn’t budge at 20/s for a bed. I camped for free instead.

A nice basic little refugio, with a fireplace, kitchen and bunk beds - only need to BYO sleeping bag. Bathrooms are a bit grim. The ranger, Mario, is super friendly and likes to chat. Beds are still s/10 pp and it's open all year apparently. You can also rent double kayaks for s/20 pp.

Good option when it's too cold to camp. It's 10 sol per bed in dorm. Not many people stay here and we had the room to ourselves. Some rooms have views over the lagoon. There's a kitchen for use.
