Choquequirao Trek — 4 Days

After breakfast, you’ll climb to Marampata (2,910 masl), a small settlement and natural viewpoint where you’ll have lunch and—if you’re lucky—spot condors soaring above the canyon. You’ll then continue for about one hour to reach the archaeological complex of Choquequirao, known as the “Lost Sister of Machu Picchu”. Your guide will lead you through the main sectors, explaining its history, architecture and strategic importance, while you enjoy the site’s rare tranquility and mountain atmosphere. After the visit, you’ll return to Santa Rosa for another night of camping.

You’ll start the day exploring newly restored areas of Choquequirao before hiking back along the same trail to Santa Rosa for lunch. Then you’ll descend toward the valley, passing Playa Rosalinas again and continuing to Chiquisca (1,950 masl), your final campsite. Along the way you may try local fruits such as mazazamba for a refreshing boost, while the canyon once again reveals its immense scale and changing landscapes.

After breakfast, you’ll complete the final hike back up to Capuliyoc, enjoying last panoramic views of the canyon and valley. Private transport will be waiting to take you back to Cusco, ending your unique Andean expedition.
