Peru Trekking


peru hiking tours

The best way to know a destination is by walking. If you are a nature lover, leave behind the conventional routes and encourage yourself to discover Cusco, Áncash or Amazonas with these seductive trekking routes.
In addition to Machu Picchu, in Cusco, there are two captive walks that every tourist must take, such as getting the Mountain of Seven Colors and Choquequirao. On the other hand, in Amazonas, you can have a direct contact with nature, getting to have a privileged view of the waterfall of Gocta, one of the highest in the world.

Kuélap

Located in the province of Luya, this archaeological site is one of the main attractions of Amazonas. During the walk you can see walls, alleys and friezes in the form of rhombuses and zigzag. The route is accessible and will not require much effort. 

Mountain of Seven Colors

Located in the province of Quispicanchi, it is the fashion attraction of Cusco. From the city of Cusco you must go by car to the town of Pitumarca. The journey lasts three hours and follow the Cusco-Puno road, from where you will start the journey. The trekking usually lasts between three and five hours, depending on the physical state of each person. Also, in Cusco you can visit the Palcoyo Mountain or Rainbow Mountain

Laguna 69

Located 96 km from the city of Huaraz, it is one of the main attractions of the Huascarán National Park, in the Ancash region. The route to reach this lagoon is of medium demand and usually takes between six and seven hours. The starting point is the Cebollapampa camp, at an altitude of 3,900 m.a.s.l. Your effort will be rewarded with a privileged view of turquoise waters.

The Inca Trail

Inca Trail Tours


In Inca times, the Incas arrived in Machu Piccchu through a path that passed through imposing palaces and temples until they reached the Puerta del Sol (Intipunku) from where the majesty of Machu Picchu was appreciated. Today that road, called Inca Trail Tours to Machu Picchu, is traveled by thousands of visitors who know among other Wiñay Wayna, Phuyupatamarca, Runkuracay and Warmiwañusca, are unique buildings of Inca architecture. Due to the number of passengers who wish to make this route, it is recommended that seats be reserved for it in advance. A shorter route is the Inca Trail 2 Day, or the Machu Picchu 3 Day Hike.

Choquequirao

The archaeological remains of Choquequirao, recently put in value, are perhaps as impressive as those of Machu Picchu. The Choquequirao Trek 4 Days through high mountain areas and wonderful Andean landscapes. It is certainly a strong walk but with many satisfactions.
