Your adventure starts with a hotel pickup in Chinchero, where you’ll meet your guide and head to the starting point of your hike. Begin your trek on the ancient roadways of the Incas, winding through verdant valleys and passing the remarkable agricultural terraces of Chinchero. You’ll soak in panoramic views of the Vilcanota mountain range and its proud centerpiece, the Veronica Peak, standing majestically at 5,832 meters above sea level.
A memorable stop awaits at Pocpoc Waterfall, where you can relax, take photos, and enjoy the refreshing mountain air. From here, the trail descends into the Sacred Valley, revealing its awe-inspiring landscape and a deep sense of tranquility. Along the way, you’ll spot vibrant flora, immense cliffs, and perhaps even wildlife native to the valley.
The trek concludes in Urquillos, a lesser-known gem where the land produces some of the finest corn. Here, a private vehicle will meet you for the short drive to Pisac. Once in Pisac, the day gets even more exciting, with plenty of time to explore the colorful markets and the historic ruins before heading back to Chinchero for an overnight stay at the charming Chinchero Boutique Hotel.
