    START

    Start your adventure with an early 4:00 am pickup from your hotel in Cusco. 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 TREK

    From Pacchanta, enjoy breathtaking views of Apu Ausangate (6,384 m / 20,945 ft) before beginning your guided trek through stunning alpine landscapes. 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.

    RETURN

    Arrive back in Cusco between 6:00 and 7:00 pm, ending a full day of adventure and relaxation in the Andes.
