Travel about 3 hours through the Andean highlands to Pacchanta, where you’ll enjoy breakfast and have time to buy any last-minute essentials. Morning temperatures range between 5–9°C, so warm clothing is recommended.

The hike covers approximately 13 km (8 miles) and takes around 4.5 hours, passing several beautiful turquoise Ausangate lakes. You’ll walk at a comfortable pace with a small group and professional guide, reaching a maximum altitude of 4,620 m (15,090 ft). After the trek, return to Pacchanta for a traditional local lunch, then relax in the natural hot springs, enjoying panoramic mountain views.

About Cusco

Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.

The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.

Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
