This live camera looks out over Huaraz, a town at about 3,080 metres in the Ancash region of northern Peru. It is a practical way to see the mountain setting and daily conditions before you plan a trip or simply want to check on this high Andean town.
About Huaraz
Huaraz sits in the Callejón de Huaylas, a long valley between the Cordillera Blanca and the Cordillera Negra. It is widely known as a base for trekking and mountaineering, with snow-capped peaks, glacier lakes and high passes close at hand. The town itself is a lively market and service centre for the surrounding villages, and its streets reflect a mix of Andean and colonial-era influences.
What to watch on the camera
The feed is a mountain view, so the most interesting moments depend on the weather. Clear mornings often offer the sharpest view of the peaks, while afternoon clouds can build up quickly over the valley and hide the summits. Watching at different times of day shows how light and cloud change over the slopes, and the local time shown on this page helps you compare what you see with the time at home.
Climate and getting there
Huaraz has a dry season from roughly May to September, which is generally considered the best time for hiking, and a wetter period from about October to April. Nights are cold year round because of the altitude. The town is reached by road from Lima and has regional bus connections, and the nearby cameras listed on this page cover coastal locations far to the west for comparison.
