Start our trek of Huchuy Qosqo, we pick you up from your hotel at 6 a.m. and take you closer to the Inca site called tambomachay (3,700 meters). It is only 20 minutes from the city of Cusco. We will begin hiking gently, uphill for an hour and a half until we get to the first pass (4,100 meters), where we’ll have panoramic views of two valleys. To your right, you will see the capital of the Incas, Cusco, with stunning mountains surrounding it. The guide tells you about the Inca history, where and how it developed and how it was conquest by the Spanish. There are two Inca sites at the bottom of the valley and on your left, there will be a beautiful landscape of mountains and farmlands. From the pass, we will follow along the side of the valley, making our way towards the top, to cross over to the other side. It’s about a 45-minute walk to the top end of the valley. Once we get there, we’ll cross a small stream that divides the valley, and begin making our way to our lunch spot, at Queullacocha Lake. The scenery at the lake is quite barren because the whole area is a high puna between the mountains, and is covered with tough, Andean grass, called Ichu. It may be possible to see a variety of bird life, such as Andean Geese, Lapwings, Partridges, among others.
After our lunch, we’ll continue on to our campsite, at the pukamarca village. We will make our way over the top from there you will have a panoramic view the village of chinchero of one of the ridges, as we descend, and loop around Qoricocha Lake (Golden Lake). It’s about a three hour walk to our campsites.
