Itinerary

Day 1: Humantay Lake Tour

Your guide will collect you from your hotel in Cusco, and transfer you to Soraypampa. You'll enjoy stunning views of the Salkantay and Humantay mountains over a traditional Peruvian breakfast. Start your hike uphill to Humantay Lake (4,200m), where you'll have time to explore the surroundings and absorb the beauty of the place. Before you start descending, your Tour Guide will perform an ancient ceremony paying tributes to the mountain gods. In the evening, you'll head back to your hotel in Cusco.

Skyhook comes through with another great experience. Our guide Charly was amazing and the food was incredible. Recommend riding horses at least part way for the full experience.
