We will start the day very early, picking up passengers from their hotels in Cusco between 4:00 and 4:30 a.m. From there, we will take a journey of approximately 2 hours to the village of Cusipata, where we will enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast.
After breakfast, we will continue our journey for about 2 hours to reach the town of Santa Lucia, where we will have a few minutes to get ready before starting our hike, which will take approximately 1 hour. During the hike, we will pass through valleys and enjoy beautiful views of the countryside while learning about the local flora and fauna.
At the highest point of the hike, we will pause to enjoy the stunning landscape and take many photos. We will then continue to our main destination, Waqrapukara, which is believed to have been an important political and religious sanctuary in the region. We will stay there for about 30 minutes, and our guide will tell us about the history of the area and the significance of this mysterious site.
After finishing the visit, we will return to the bus station to take transportation back to Cusipata, where we will have lunch. After lunch, we will take our transport back to Cusco, arriving around 6:00 p.m. and dropping you off at Plaza Regocijos.
