Enjoy an unforgettable experience in the Andes south of Cusco with the Q'eswachaka Inca Bridge Full Day Tour, a trip that will take you to the heart of the living tradition of the Inca Empire. Discover the Q'eswachaka suspension bridge, a masterpiece of engineering woven with Andean straw (ichu) that local communities renew every year, preserving an ancestral custom with more than 600 years of history.

You'll start your adventure early with a pick-up from your accommodation. During the tour to the south of Cusco, you'll enjoy the circuit of the four lagoons: Pomacanchi, Acopia, Asnaqocha, and Pampamarca. Each one offers dreamlike landscapes, with Andean birds and a peaceful atmosphere of tranquility, perfect for photography and getting in touch with nature.

Then, we'll make a brief stop in Yanaoca to observe the small but imposing Pabellones Volcano, before continuing to Q'eswachaka, where you'll take a short walk to the emblematic Inca bridge. 29 meters long and suspended over the Apurímac River, this unique structure is a symbol of cooperation and cultural heritage. Our guide will explain how the communities of Huinchiri, Chaupibanda, Ccollana, and Choccayhua renew the bridge each year in a ceremony that combines communal work and traditional rituals.

After admiring this wonder, you'll enjoy a box lunch surrounded by impressive Andean landscapes. On the way back, we'll explore the Q'arañahui Caves, natural caverns with curious stalactite and stalagmite formations that evoke animal figures and mythical characters, a place full of mystery and natural beauty.

Before heading back to Cusco, we'll make one last stop at Lake Pomacanchi, where you can relax and observe the local wildlife at sunset. Then, we'll head back, arriving at your accommodation in the late afternoon.

This tour is perfect for those who want to discover the cultural and natural authenticity of the Andes, combining landscapes, history, and living tradition. More than an excursion, it's an immersion in the Inca community spirit that still endures in the mountains of Peru, a reminder of the deep connection between human beings and nature.
