Mercedes is happy to let you camp in her property.
She is so friendly and has a yougurt and cheese farm.
You can camp or park behind the shop,so nobody would see you from the road
Is a very quiet and safe place to stay.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Pin is incorrect indeed. On Google satellite on the left side of the road when driving towards Cusco you can see the factory.
People are kind, cheese is alright
For us unfortunately not recommended
We had to sleep at the terrain of the workers who started coming and going the whole night
We did not sleep
Compared to the other places it is safe. So if you must stop this is a good option
Report Check-InVery, very, lovely people. We arrived at nightfall and the family was very welcoming. We stayed behind the factory within their gates and could use the bathroom of the workers. Stay was free and we bought (very tasty) yoghurt, cheese and helado in return.
Pin is too far away from the street. The factory is right next to the street.
Report Check-In3 l yogut = 10 soles
1 fresh cheese = 14 soles
1 andino chesse = 8 soles.

Alternative place to buy milk produts.
we stopped here on our way to Puno but a person told us that Mercedes wasn't there and we couldn't stay overnight. very sad I really wanted to try the yogurt and meet the family but not this time
Report Check-InAmazing place with amazing people. First, it's such a pleasure to drink this tasty yogurt in front of the infinity of the alta pampa ! We stayed there with our van and we spend the night with Mercedes and her daughters by sharing hot cacao, song and dance around a fire all together ! Highly recommended !

Report Check-InMercedes allowed us to stay for the night and brought us some coca leaves for the night. there is potable water behind the house and a pit toilet. super quiet and safe. Mercedes is lovely and super helpful. would go there again no doubt!
Report Check-InA group of four of us moto camped here last night. Mercedes, her husband Simon, and their girls are so nice and inviting! She brought us cheese, roasted corn, hot water and coca leaves. In the morning we bought cheese and they gave us a tour of their wonderfully clean facility. They love to have people stop. Recommended!
