Wari Ruins
An attractive 37km road climbs about 550m to Quinua, 20km along which you will pass the extensive Wari ruins sprawling for several kilometers by the roadside. The five main sectors of the ruins are marked by road signs; the upper sites are in rather bizarre forests of Opuntia cacti. If you visit, don’t leave the site too late to look for onward or return transport – vehicles can get hopelessly full in the afternoon. Note that you have to pay the full fare to Quinua and remind the driver to drop you off at the ruins.
