Are you looking for a new and exciting day trip from Cusco?
Consider visiting the impressive Inca archaeological complex of Waqrapukara, situated on top of a steep mountain and surrounded by stunning views over the Apurimac Canyon.
This enigmatic fortress features eight Inca terraces with retaining walls and stone stairways. The hike to Waqrapukara is a new and alternative day trip in the Cusco area.
It's an ideal trip for those who love to hike and are looking for adventure. We recommend this tour if you would like to practice for the Inca trail or Salkantay trek.
Getting there involves a 3½-hour drive from Cusco, and then a 2-hour trek.
