CHOQUEQUIRAO 

FULL ECOADVENTURE - ALL INCLUDED

INCA TRAIL 4days /3nights
IN THE ANDES AND AMAZON CUSCO

Choquequirao (3.085m) is situated in the top of a mountain in the province of Cusco. It is said that these ruins were the last refuge of the Inca´s Sons. This amazing fortress was build during the government of Inca Pachacutec the greatest inka at that time.

The total area of palaces, temples, sources, canals and aqueduct is still unknown. Only 30% of this huge complex has been explored. The rest is covered by vegetation and in some way waits to be descober. Choquequirao, in Spanish means “Golden Cradle”, offers an amazing bio-diversity, and with a little bit of luck you will be able to see the majestic condor or a spectacular bear. 

Since 1992 tourists are going to Choquequirao and only a few visitors take on the strain, because of this remote area and ambitious hike.During this trip we can enjoy giant mountains, breathtaking cliffs, splendid snow peaks and spectacular canyons.

Day 1: We pick you up from your hotels at approx. 8:00am to catch our private bus to Qachora, passing the districts of Izcuchaca, Tarawashi and Limatambo.

Arriving at the Cunyac Bridge, border between the departments of Cusco and Apurimac, we can enjoy one of the most important rivers in the world to practice Rafting, the Apurimac River (God speaks).

After a delicious lunch we continue driving to Qachora, visit the village to get in contact with the local people and get to know their habits. We stay the night in this charming Andean village.

We start our hike with a soft trail to the pass (Cerro Waywa qalli 3.800m), where we start descending to the Apurimac Canyon. After 6 hours of hiking, we'll enjoy a light, but exquisite lunch on the river shore of the Apurimac River. After this break we continue our trek up to the village of Santa Rosa (Cañaveral) for about an hour. We camp and have dinner in the same village.

Day 3 : After having a tasty lunch (5:30am) we come closer to our destination Choquequirao. The trail is steeper than the day before, and after 1 ½ hour hike we arrive the second pass Maranpata. After a short relaxing break we start the last passage to our object, the last home and refuge of the Incas “CHOQUEQUIRAO”.
