Cusco/Peru – Uyuni/Bolivia
A final higher pass and it goes towards Lake Titicaca and the Altiplano. Alti (high) yes, not quite plano (flat), but until further notice we finished 4-digit meters of altitude climbing dayly.

Trujillo/Peru – Huánuco/Peru
Our two route-options are described equally from everybody we meet. We could take the shortest way along the coast, a well asphalted road with a flat profile. We would have a steady head wind and of many attractions of the country we would only see few. […]
