Day 1: Humantay lake, the most turquoise clear water in Cusco.

This amazing day will start around 4 am in the morning, we know, it's a bit early but we can ensure that it will be totally worth it.

We will drive to Mollepata for about 3 hours approx. During this ride, you can enjoy the landscapes or just take a nap to recover some strength. After this drive, we will reach Peru Ecocamp restaurant. This is one of the most delightful places with standards of quality, so this is the chosen one for our meals! You can have Peruvian dishes with local products and take some rest before the walk starts.

Enjoying our free time, we will have lunch at the same restaurant and by the afternoon, we will start our trek!
We can finally start walking for one hour and a half up to the Humantay viewpoint. This path is a bit steep but there's nothing we can't do. To make this trip even better, nature will host us with stunning views, sacred mountains, and immaculate glaciers that shows us that we are not anymore in the crowded city.

Our guide will give us the strength to continue and some historical information of the site. Once we arrive, we will be more than pleased to be here. We finally made this!

Selfie time! we will have some free time for pictures or just admire the zone. Once ready, lunch time is waiting for us. We will walk back for one hour and a half.
