From Shira Camp you trek to the beautiful Lava Tower for lunch. This part of the climb has many ascents and descents and offers beautiful views along the way. It is important to find your right pace, as this is a longer hike and you might feel a bit uncomfortable due to the increased altitude. After lunch, you descend to Barranco Camp at the foot of the imposing Barranco Wall, which is impressive in both its sheer size and steepness.
