After an energizing breakfast, we set off on a 30-minute descent toward Playa Rosalina, located at 1,500 meters above sea level. From here, we prepare for the challenge of the day: a quick and vigorous ascent through the canyon under the warm Andean sun, until we reach the picturesque village of Marampata at 2,850 meters.

In Marampata, we will be rewarded with a spectacular view of the Choquequirao archaeological site. As the sun sets, the landscape transforms into a spectacle of colors, and if we are lucky, we may spot the majestic flight of the Andean condor over the ancient mountains of the Vilcabamba range and the impressive Choquequirao archaeological complex.

Just 20 minutes away from the archaeological center, we will set up our camp for the night, surrounded by history and natural beauty.

Trek Details:

• Duration: 7 hours
• Climate: Varies from warm to cold, offering a diverse and complete experience.

In the morning, after enjoying breakfast, we will have time to visit the Choquequirao archaeological complex once more with our guide and appreciate the sunrise. Shortly after, it will be time to head back; we will descend along the same route to Santa Rosa. There, we will have lunch, and later we will continue our hike to Chiquisca, where we will have dinner and spend the night at our campsite.

After breakfast, we will begin the uphill hike to the Wayna Qalli viewpoint. From this vantage point, you can appreciate the canyon formed by the mountains along with the Apurimac River, which is considered one of the most spectacular in South America. We will continue our trek until we reach Cachora, where our transportation will be waiting to take us back to Cusco.
