Waqrapukara Adventure and Mystery 1 day

four friends enjoying Waqrapukara

Our adventure begins very early, with pickup from your hotel in Cusco between 4:00 and 4:30 a.m. We will travel in our private transport to the south, through stunning Andean landscapes, until we reach the town of Cusipata where we will enjoy a nutritious breakfast to recharge.

We will continue the journey by car to the starting point of our hike. From here, we will begin a trek of approximately 2 to 3 hours along a relatively flat but high-altitude trail, surrounded by rock formations and the typical flora and fauna of the puna. The hike itself is an experience, offering peace and panoramic views.

The reward at the end of the path is arriving at the imposing Waqrapukara fortress. Its name in Quechua means "horn-shaped fortress," and its location on the edge of the Apurimac River canyon is simply spectacular. Our guide will provide a full tour of the archaeological site, explaining its possible use as a religious sanctuary and astronomical observatory.

After exploring and taking photos of this incredible place, we will enjoy a box lunch with a privileged view. Then, we will begin the hike back to our transport to finally return to the city of Cusco, where we will arrive at approximately 6:30 p.m.
