In 1907 Miraflores was a seaside village of 1,258 people. By 1941 it had 50,000, and a newly widened avenue was carrying it down to the cliffs above the Pacific. This walk follows that story from the park to the edge.
Start in Kennedy Park among its famous cats, see the parish church and the town hall with its tower turned to face the park, and pause at the memorial on Calle Tarata, where a car bomb struck in 1992. Then follow Avenida Larco down to Larcomar, the mall built into the cliff, and walk the clifftop parks: the gravel cliffs and the Green Coast below, a bridge over a ravine, El Beso and its mosaic benches, and the launch where paragliders ride the sea breeze.
Eleven stops, about 2.9 km and 90 minutes, in English or Spanish at your own pace. Level or gently downhill, no stairs. Paragliding flights are not included.
What to bring
- Ticket code: Enter your ticket code on the Roamer redemption page from your confirmation before you set off.
- Phone and data: Bring a charged phone; use mobile data or open the tour on Wi-Fi before starting if you will be offline.
- Earphones: Bring earphones so you can listen comfortably as you walk.
- Clothing: Bring a light layer and sun protection, as the cliff-top parks are exposed to sun and wind.
Additional information
- Tour access: The tour opens in your phone browser, so you do not need to download any app.
- Best time to go: Walk by day, ideally late morning to afternoon; avoid cliff-top parks after dark.
- Weather note: Expect grey, drizzly garúa from April to November and sunnier days from December to March.
- Start location: Parque Kennedy is in central Miraflores, with Metropolitano stops Ricardo Palma and Benavides a short walk east.
- Nearby sites: Huaca Pucllana is about 1.2 km north of Parque Kennedy and is closed on Tuesdays.
- Museum tip: Check opening hours for Casa Museo Ricardo Palma and Centro Cultural Ricardo Palma before visiting.
- Paragliding: Tandem paragliding flights leave from Parque Raimondi by day, weather permitting, under a municipal agreement with licensed pilots. There is no official published price: agree it with the pilot before you fly.
- Surf beaches: Makaha and Waikiki beaches sit below the cliffs; the return climb is steep and the beach highway carries fast traffic.
- Route end: The walk ends at Parque Raimondi, with Faro La Marina and the Barranco walk reachable along the coast.
- Pickpocketing: Keep your phone and bag close in and around Parque Kennedy, especially when taking photos.
- Road safety: Cross Avenida Larco, Avenida Benavides, and cliff-end roads only at traffic lights and keep off the bus lane.
- Cycle path: Stay on the footpath along the cliff-top parks and watch for bikes on the two-way cycle path.
- Cliff safety: Stay on paths and behind hedges and railings, as the gravel cliff edge can crumble, and keep children close.
- Daytime only: Treat this as a daytime walk, as some cliff-top park edges are dimly lit after dark.
- Please check your final voucher for the redemption details and specific instructions.
- Your voucher will be emailed to you shortly.
