Cerro de la Juventud
This is a famous pilgrimage route in the city of Chimbote, widely known for Holy Week processions.
The first section is paved for almost 5 km, climbing toward the sanctuary church. Just before reaching the church, a flight of stairs marks the start of the unpaved 1 km mountain trail leading to the summit cross.
Starting near sea level, the ascent is continuous with no elevation loss, making it a popular training hill for local runners and cyclists (who use the paved section).
