Lake Paron + Tunnel Punta Olimpica Resting at 4,200 metres, Lake Parón is the largest lake in the Cordillera Blanca, on the Peruvian Andes. We camped at the rangers station (it was very cold!) but we woke to a clear day with some amazing views of the lake. With a length of 1,384 meters, Tunnel Punta Olimpica is the longest vehicular tunnel in Peru and the highest in the world, located at 4,735 meters. The drive to and from the tunnel was absolutely stunning, even with the headaches from the altitude! To put that into perspective the highest point in the Alps is Mont Blanc and is 4,800m. -- source link
