Pacllón is a district of the province of Bolognesi, in the Ancash Region of Peru.

The town is within a day's walk from Chiquián. Many of the arrierros (donkey owners) that work in Huayhuash live here. Donkeys can be obtained here. The town is also home to stores with a regular selection of meals.

The hike from either Laguna Jahuacocha or Quebrada Jashapampa takes all day and offers some of the best views of the Huayhuash Mountain range. There are places to camp on both sides of the town.
