Vitis District

Vitis District is one of thirty-three districts of the Yauyos Province in Peru.

Vitis has a small annex 42 kilometers from the center of town, named Chunuraran, which is inaccessible by road and is used by the townsfolk for their cows, llamas, and alpacas. Few people really live in Chunuraran throughout the entire calendar year. From Chunuraran as well as the path to the annex views of a small mini-chain of snow-covered mountains can be seen. As is the case with the rest of the Sierra mountains in Peru, much of the snow of these mountains has receded a significant amount in the past decades, and the last of the permanent snow-covered mountains in the Yauyos Province will have disappeared completely within the next few decades.
