Tour Highlights

Start your day with the hike from the village of Cachora, surrounded by majestic mountains, where the view of the snow-capped Padreyoc will accompany you during the ascent towards Capuliyoc. Upon reaching the Capuliyoc pass, admire the stunning panoramic view of the Apurímac canyon, where the dramatic landscapes will make you feel the grandeur of nature. Feel the heat as you descend towards the Chiquisca campsite, crossing a landscape that blends the warmth of the tropical climate with the coolness of the nearby mountains.
On the second day, descend for 30 minutes towards Playa Rosalina, where the warm atmosphere and lush vegetation will give you a sense of immersion in the tropical rainforest.
Ascend determinedly through the canyon until you reach Marampata, and enjoy panoramic views of the Choquequirao archaeological site, which majestically rises on the mountain. Experience the unique feeling of being at the sunset of Choquequirao, while observing condors soaring over the mountains, creating a stunning scene.
On the third day, return the same way, descending once again to the Apurímac Canyon and ascending to Chiquisca, while reliving the emotions experienced during the journey.
On the fourth day, ascend towards the Capuliyoc pass, where the contact with nature will allow you to enjoy a spectacular view while saying goodbye to this incredible landscape. Finish your adventure with the return to Cusco.
