Canyon del pato
 

Hi Guys,

I took this road few years back and do not remember if its better to take it from Chimbote or Trujillo .
I am in Chiclayo until tomorrow and will be in Trujillo tomorrow for a day or 2 .

Let me know whichone is most scenic

Thanks

One way as you mentioned is to head south on the PanAm from Trujillo to Santa (just north of Chimbote) then take the road in from Santa. However, I think the road in from Huamachuco is quite scenic IIRC.

Thanks Crashmaster , I just did the long way and love it , not much change since last time I was here , now resting in Huaraz and checking my screws loose.

Life is good

Great Road!
 

Glad you liked it. I did it from Cuzco all the way up the middle to Cajamarca last summer. Then back via the jungle. The Canyon del Pato is sort of cool, but the best road of the 36 day trip last summer was the Cajamarca to Chachapoyas... WOW!!!! I'm moving there for good (I'm serious!)
