The Forgotten Figures of Palpa

As the flight begins, the desert hills of Palpa reveal their own secrets—ancient geoglyphs older than those of Nazca. Etched into the slopes are large humanoid figures with outstretched hands and spiral crowns, watching silently over the valley. Less known, yet deeply symbolic, the Palpa Lines invite a different kind of wonder—one tied to forgotten creators and messages lost in time.

Your Day, Step by Step

Your experience begins with a smooth, timely pick-up from Your Hotel in Paracas. A short scenic drive takes you to Pisco Airport, where you are assisted with check-in, receive a pre-flight briefing and your Nazca Lines map, then proceed through secure boarding.

You board the Cessna Grand Caravan, a high-wing aircraft renowned for stability and panoramic visibility. Every traveler gets a guaranteed window seat. As you take off, the vast desert transforms into a canvas of ancient artistry.

Soon after takeoff you soar above the legendary Nazca Lines. Highlights include the Hummingbird, Monkey, Condor, Spider, Hands and Astronaut. The pilot banks gently in both directions so every passenger enjoys an unobstructed view of each geoglyph.

The flight continues toward the Palpa region and its enigmatic hillside figures — anthropomorphic beings with large eyes and elaborate headgear, believed to be even older than the Nazca Lines.

After the flight the aircraft lands back at Pisco Airport. Our representative greets you and escorts you on a comfortable drive back to Your Hotel in Paracas — your camera full of unforgettable shots.
