Description
Join our Ausangate 7 lagoons day hike and immerse yourself in the Andean culture. Marvel at the turquoise lakes, lush flora and fauna, and soaring mountains of the Cusco region.
We will pick you up at 4:00 a.m. from your hotel and drive to the village of Pacchanta (4,100m), which is located near Ausangate Mountain. There, our local people will invite us to their homes for a nutritious breakfast made with Andean ingredients (around 7:30 a.m.).
We will embark on a hike into the heart of the Andes Mountain range to explore the seven stunning Ausangate lagoons, with breathtaking views of the majestic Ausangate Mountain in the distance. The first lagoon is approximately 5-6 kilometers away and should take about 1.5 hours to reach.
After visiting the first lagoon, we will continue our fascinating adventure by hiking to other lagoons perched in the middle of the Andes Mountain range, surrounded by wonderful vegetation. The hike will be approximately 10 km (5 hours of walking).
Our wonderful experience in Pacchanta will come to a close as we return to Cusco after enjoying the hot springs and lunch.
