Itinerary and highlights
In the morning, between 4:30 and 5:00 a.m., we will pick you up from your hotel in Cusco and begin your journey in a tourist vehicle heading northeast of the city. Along the way, we will pass through various towns and villages until reaching the town of Limatambo. From this point, we will ascend toward the village of Mollepata, where we will stop to enjoy breakfast.
After breakfast, we will continue your trip to Soraypampa. Upon arrival, we will begin your hike toward the stunning Humantay Lagoon. The hike takes approximately 2 hours. Once at the lagoon, you will be able to admire the breathtaking scenery and the impressive view of the Humantay snow-capped mountain.
After a short rest and time for photos, we will return along the same path to Soraypampa, board your transport, and head back to Mollepata, where we’ll enjoy a delicious lunch. Finally, we will return to Cusco, arriving at approximately 6:30 p.m.
