When I first went to Chavin 12 years back with don Howard Lawler on the 'Journey Through Time' pilgrimage the only way to get there was by bus to Huaraz then taxi or van to Chavin 3 hours away over a very bad road. Now the road from Huaraz to Chavin has been greatly improved so that now it takes only two hours.
JL Peru airlines now flies from Lima to Huaraz 3 times per week. This was the first time I had flown in to Huaraz and I appreciated not having to travel by bus. Flying was far less wear and tear.
