Lachay National Reserve in Peru is a remarkable natural sanctuary situated in the coastal desert region of the country. Spanning over 5,000 hectares, the reserve is celebrated for its unique lomas ecosystem, where fog from the Pacific Ocean creates a lush, green environment amidst the arid landscape. This phenomenon supports a diverse array of flora and fauna, including various species of birds, mammals, and reptiles. The reserve is especially known for its vibrant wildflowers and native plants that bloom during the winter months.
