A great way to get up into the Andes. We enjoyed walking along the lake and the excellent picnic, along with the Chocolate House and stop in town. Leonardo was a good guide, but a little lacking in English. Driving along the lake on the mining road was exciting due to the steep drop off and no guard rails.
