Search Huancas hotels

The best area to stay in Huancas is generally within the main village itself, as it's a small community and most accommodations are centrally located.


Huancas is a compact, traditional village known for its pottery and its proximity to the Huancas Viewpoint, offering stunning views of the Sonche Canyon. The village centre is small and easily walkable, with a main square (Plaza de Armas) where you'll find the local church and some small shops. Most guesthouses and family-run accommodations are situated just a few streets off this central square.


For couples looking for a quiet retreat, staying directly within the village provides a genuine experience of local life. You'll be close to the pottery workshops where you can observe artisans at work and the short walk to the Huancas Viewpoint is convenient for enjoying sunrises or sunsets over the canyon.

The best time to visit Huancas is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.


During these months, you'll experience sunny days and minimal rainfall, making it ideal for exploring the natural beauty of the region. The trails to the Canyon de Huancas and surrounding viewpoints are much more accessible and pleasant to hike, offering clear views of the geological formations and the Utcubamba River below.


This period is particularly good for travellers who enjoy outdoor activities and photography.
