The Lazy Dog Inn a Mountain Lodge

Very remote, well located into the Cordillera blanca, super service which includes breakfast and dinner (food was really good), grounds and views are amazing. Staff and owner are full super helpful and gave us great tips to adjust to the altitude. We had a nice room where we could lit a fire at night

We stayed for a week at The Lazy Dog Inn and it was such a fantastic way to explore a little of the Cordillera Blanca. The owners and hosts, Diana and Wayne offer a very special experience for people who love getting out in nature and exploring this very unique part of the world. About 6 km up in the mountains above Huaraz, The Lazy Dog Inn is perfectly located to retreat from the hustle and bustle of a very big town. Many hikes are nearby and for those that are a little further away, the hosts have a great service with a local taxi company so transport is available to trailheads for a fixed price, removing all the transport hassles associated with getting to hikes, or needing to do tours. Information. Diana and Wayne have lived in the area for a long time and have wonderful information booklets for guests as well as many ideas and suggestions to individualise each guest’s trip. There is no big sell for any particular walks as there is downtown. instead there is honest feedback so that you can accurately assess what you might like to do. As well as several longer hikes and walks to local famous lagoons, we enjoyed walking down to Huaraz, catching local colectivos and learning about the local farmers living in surrounding communities - who were all very friendly and greet everyone in passing. Comfort. The Lazy Dog Inn is a relaxing haven. Hot fires every night. Wonderful breakfasts, dinners and packed lunches for hikes. The food is locally grown and absolutely delicious. Perfect for hungry hikers! All the staff are so friendly and helpful. We particularly enjoyed meeting the women from the local community who cooked for us everyday. Other travellers were friendly and were all doing such interesting things we also learnt heaps from them :) The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the beds are big and very warm, washing facilities for those staying longer etc etc. Nothing was too much trouble. We hope to come back 😀

Everything was wonderful
