Distances
PACHAK 100K
Walk along ancient Inca trails, surrounded by imposing mountains or Apus, while crossing cloud forests full of life and vegetation. As you advance, the paths take you to crystal-clear lagoons, such as Laguna de Piuray, whose hues reflect the majesty of the snow-capped peaks of the Vilcanota mountain range. And to make the journey even more epic, you will discover the surprising agricultural terraces of Chinchero, an archaeological wonder that evokes Inca ingenuity.
But that's not all. The route will take you through mountain passes as high as cachicata, an Inca quarry from which megaliths were extracted for the construction of Inca cities such as Ollantaytambo, where the view extends over the Sacred Valley and the peaks of Chicon and Wakay Willka (Veronica), offering you panoramas that seem to touch the sky.
And at the end of the tour, you will be welcomed in the historic city of Cusco, the capital of Tawantinsuyu, where the vibrant and ancestral culture will envelop you.
Get ready for a unique adventure along the sacred trails of Qhapaq Ñan, in the heart of the Cusco Andes!
