.I T I N E R A R Y
 

Day 1. Piuray lake to Huchuy Qosqo archaeological center
Morning pick-up from the hotel to take us to Piuray lake in the community of Chinchero. Here we will be met by the horses and porters. After loading our equipment, we will start the trek by an ancient uphill Inca trail. After crossing a lake and a mountain pass (4,450 masl / 14,600 ft) we will start descending by a creek that is surrounded by Inca walls and houses, until we reach Huchuy Q’osqo, where we will be camping. Our campsite will be located on an Inca terrace that sits on top of the complex overlooking the Sacred Valley and its breathtaking snow-capped mountains with the ruins below.

Day 2. Huchuy Qosqo to Lamay
After enjoying a healthy breakfast we will visit this important Inca complex, home to the great Inca Wiracocha. Soon after, we will descend for two to three hours to Lamay, enjoying the spectacular mountains views, towns and crop fields of the Sacred Valley. Our transport will then pick us up and take us back to Cusco.
