Cusco Region

Peru

Discover an uncrowded ancient Inca site on a 4-day hike to Choquequirao, often referred to as the mini Machu Picchu. You'll find ancient ruins that drop steeply away into the forest here, but the site's drama is matched by the beautiful and challenging trek to Choquequirao, which takes you over peaks, through wide river valleys, and to remote campsites in the Andes mountains.

Day 1

The Bus will pick us up at the hotel at 6am and will transport us to the disctrict of San Jose De Cachora (3 hours) where we will begin the walk. This will be the first section of ascending until we reach the Chikiska zone. After lunch we will descend until our first campsite at the shores of the Apurimac River known as the Rosalinas beach. On this day we will walk for between 5 and 6 hours according to the speed of the group.
