About the Event
We will be hiking in the shadow of Ausangate, the highest mountain in the Cusco Region. This is a truly remote wilderness trek with incredible views of the Peruvian Andes.
This is a moderate to challenging trek, not technical, with several high passes. The campsites are at high elevations and will be below freezing at night. It is essential to be properly acclimatized for this hike, spending at least two or three days in Cusco (or equivalent altitude) before starting. If you plan to participate in the 10 day Machu Picchu trip prior to this trek, you will already be acclimated.
Highlights: pristine wilderness, lots of wildlife, glacial mountains, turquoise lakes, Ausangate Mountain! Secluded hot springs the last night on trail!
Distance: 62 miles
