Mallkin
is located near Azangaro, Puno just two and half hours drive from Juliaca´s
Airport (125kms /78 miles).
When traveling from Juliaca to Mallkini, we have the chance to see some
of the fauna found in this region of Peru. Besides alpacas and llamas,we
are able to see a variety of birds like flamencos eating shrimp in the
riverbanks of Pucara river, some local eagles, foxes, and if we get lucky
some deer. Also there is a great variety of flora to be seen in this area,
like the Andean grass known as "ichu", some quenuales woods
in the foothills of the cordillera, flowers and a variety of cactus.
