From welcoming stays in Oxapampa to character lodges in Pozuzo and coffee-country retreats around Villa Rica, discover our carefully selected places to stay across Pasco.
TIPS FOR CHOOSING WHERE TO STAY IN PASCO
SAFETY
Pasco ranges from high Andes to humid cloud forest, so conditions can change quickly. Bring sun and rain protection, take care with altitude in higher areas, and use established operators for excursions, transfers and more remote routes.
GETTING AROUND
Taxis and mototaxis are widely used around Oxapampa and Villa Rica. Travel between towns is mainly by road, with private transfers often the easiest option. Routes to Pozuzo can be long and winding, so allow plenty of time.
