Pampa Galeras – Barbara D'Achille National Reserve is a protected area located in the Ayacucho region of Peru. Established in 1967, the reserve covers approximately 6,500 hectares and is renowned for its efforts to conserve the vicuña, a camelid species native to the high Andean plains. The reserve is named in honor of Barbara D'Achille, an environmental journalist who was dedicated to wildlife conservation in Peru. In addition to vicuñas, the reserve is home to various other species of flora and fauna, making it an important site for biodiversity.
