The tour begins with a hotel pickup in Cusco and a scenic drive to the town of Mollepata, a charming valley surrounded by mountains. Here, we will enjoy a nutritious breakfast to prepare us for the hike ahead.
We then continue by transport to Soraypampa, the starting point of our adventure. From here, the hike begins with a steady uphill trail, surrounded by breathtaking Andean landscapes, with the snow-capped Salkantay Mountain accompanying us along the way.
After approximately an hour and a half of hiking, we will reach the majestic Humantay Lagoon, famous for its intense turquoise color and stunning location at the foot of the glacier of the same name. At this spot, you will have free time to rest, take photos, and listen to the guide’s explanations about the lagoon’s natural and spiritual significance.
Once we have enjoyed this magical place, we begin our descent back to Soraypampa, where our transport will be waiting to take us to Mollepata for a delicious buffet lunch. Finally, we return to Cusco, concluding this unique experience in the Andes.
