DAY 1 CUSCO – MOLLEPATA – SORAYPAMPA – HUMANTAY LAGOON
Our guide will pick you up in Cusco at 4:30 am. We will drive with the group to Mollepata where we will have a nutritious breakfast. We will then drive another hour to Challacancha, the starting point of our hike. After a three-hour hike, we will arrive at our camp in Soraypampa at approximately 1:30 p.m. We will have time to relax and enjoy a delicious lunch prepared by our cook.

Later, we will finally visit the famous Humanta Lagoon and then descend to our camp in Soraypampa. We will arrive at approximately 6:00 pm

DAY 2 SORAYMAPA – SALKANTAY PASS – COLLPAPAMPA
At 5:00 am we will enjoy a great breakfast. Starting our walk from Soraypampa, we will ascend for 4 hours to the highest point of the Salkantay Pass.

Passing through the high mountains of the Andes, we will discover a beautiful small lake and then begin our descent towards Huayrac-Pampa for 2 and a half hours. There, we will have lunch and continue our descent for 3 more hours until we reach our camp. We will have tea and a delicious dinner.

DAY 3 COLLPAPAMPA – LUCMABAMBA – HYDROELECTRIC – AGUAS CALIENTES
We begin our 5 ½ hour walk through the Peruvian jungle. We will arrive at our lunch point to rest a little, and shortly after we will take our transportation to Hidroeléctrica. We will walk about 3 hours to Aguas Calientes. Upon arriving in Aguas Calientes, we will enjoy a delicious dinner.

Day 4 MACHU PICCHU – CUSCO
We will get up very early this morning for our visit to the famous Machu Picchu, the Lost City of the Incas. This complex is considered a jewel of Inca architecture. It is a complete city with different neighborhoods, squares, alleys, buildings, astronomical observatories and terraces. The city was rediscovered on July 24, 1911 by the American researcher Hiram Bingham. We will have a guided tour to see and learn about the site of Machu Picchu, a Wonder of the World. After the guided tour, you will have free time to take photographs and discover this magical place for yourself.

For those who have previously selected to climb Huayna Picchu Mountain or Machu Picchu Mountain, they will do so at the designated time (1st group: 6am to 8am, 2nd group: 9am to 11am).

In the afternoon, we will return to Aguas Calientes. We will have time for lunch (not included), the perfect opportunity to explore local restaurants. Then we will take the train to Ollantaytambo, from where you will be transferred to Cusco.
