Highlights
The Classic Choquequirao Trek is an awesome option for true adventurers, history lovers, and nature enthusiasts. You’ll head off the beaten path and away from other tourists as you venture through the incredible scenery along a rarely traveled trail to a real archaeological gem. Join us as part of a group or as a couple.
Choquequirao trek is an exciting alternative trek to the Inca Trail. The lesser-known ruins of Choquequirao feature similar architecture and layout to the more famous complex of Machu Picchu. The fact that you can only get there on foot, however, means that far fewer people visit this incredible site.
Itinerary
Cusco – Capuliyoc – Playa Rosalinas.

Choquequirao Expeditions
3 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAfter enjoying a delicious breakfast to recharge your batteries, we´ll continue our journey and begin our hike. A zigzagging ascent to Marampata (2,900 m / 9,514 ft) awaits us, where you can take impressive photos of the canyon and the snow-capped peaks that surround you. We´ll start with a descent of one hour and fifteen minutes to reach the deepest part of the valley known as Playa Rosalinas (1,500 m / 4,921 ft). We will cross the pedestrian bridge to begin the toughest part of our trek.Choquequirao Trek
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedOn the way, we´ll make a brief stop at the hamlet of Santa Rosa (1,970 m / 6,463 ft), where you can enjoy a delicious lunch prepared by our team to recover energy; we´ll continue ascending for approximately three hours until we reach the Marampata camp. In the afternoon, you will enjoy the impressive surroundings and feel the energy that this spectacular place has near the citadel of Choquequirao. In addition, you will take the time to stretch your muscles and enjoy a beautiful sunset that floods the endless valleys and white glacial mountains with its soft orange light. When it starts to get dark, we will see the beautiful sunset accompanied by a sky full of thousands of stars covering the landscape and the vegetation around us. Then it will be time to have dinner before going to bed to rest.- AccommodationsCamping at MarampataFood And DrinksBreakfastLunch - BuffetDinner - Buffet
Archaeological Complex of Choquequirao - Marampata.
Marampata- Choquequirao
4 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedWe´ll start the day with a delicious breakfast that will give you a boost of energy. Then, we´ll take the day to explore every detail of this incredible Inca site located in the mountains and very close to the deepest canyon of the entire South American continent. You can already imagine the incredible landscapes that surround this colossal Inca construction. We´ll visit the most impressive corners of this place and our guide will share with you the fascinating stories of the past and the reason why it was built. Choquequirao (3,050 m / 10,007 ft) is much larger than Machu Picchu, with plazas, temples, and impressive platforms that will make you constantly ponder the question: How could the Incas build this on top of the mountains? You´ll enjoy a picnic lunch at noon and have time to rest and recover your energy.Ruinas de Choquequirao
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedDon´t miss the famous white stone llamas that adorn the platforms built on the hillside and are located in the direction of the mountain that protects this sector known as the Apu Qoriwayrachina. According to experts, only an average of 40% of the entire site is visible and, in many ways, Choquequirao remains a mystery. We are sure that in the coming years we will learn even more about this amazing complex. At the end of the day, we will return to our camp at Marampata (2,900 m / 9,514 ft) and enjoy a delicious dinner. Afterwards, you can go to bed to contemplate the incredible day you have just had and rest.- AccommodationsCamping at Playa Rosalinas.Food And DrinksBreakfastLunchDinner

Choquequirao Archaeological Park
3 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAfter another delicious breakfast, we’ll start our return from Choquequirao.

First, we will have another opportunity to take pictures of the great canyon from Marampata; then, we will descend for two hours until we reach Santa Rosa (2,970 m / 6,463 ft), lunch point. On the way, you will have the opportunity to observe the enormous variety of vegetation on this part of the trail.Choquequirao
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAfter lunch, we’ll continue to Playa Rosalinas and dip our feet and freshen up in the cold waters of the Apurimac River in the middle of the canyon. Then, we’ll go up to Chiquisca camp (1,900 m / 6,234 ft), located in the backyard of the home of a local family. Use this time to make new friends and learn about the Andean lifestyle, like their customs and traditions. You’ll be able to closely observe the deep relationship that the Andean communities have with Pachamama or, as you know her, Mother Nature. After a delicious dinner, you can rest peacefully for the night in our cozy camp and reflect on your journey up to this point.- AccommodationsCamping at ChikiscaFood And DrinksBreakfastLunchDinner
Capuliyoc - Saywite Monolith - Conoc Hot Springs - Cusco
Complejo Arqueológico "Saywite"
3 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedToday we will enjoy the last breakfast of our epic adventure while listening to the mighty roar of the river. Afterwards, we´ll leave as early as possible to avoid the sun hindering our hike, as it can make things very difficult at high altitudes. Take a deep breath and focus on the energy of mother nature as you hike for 4 hours to Capuliyoc. Once there, we´ll say goodbye to the trekking team and board the private transportation that will take us to see the famous Saywite monolith, a colossal rock sculpted with more than 200 geometric and zoomorphic figures. You´ll discover that this place was a center of religious worship for the Inca people, centered on water and of great importance to their culture.Cusco
2 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeAfter learning all about the place's history, we’ll continue to the hot springs of Conoc to relax and unwind in the warm waters. Our lunch will be ready after enjoying these refreshing pools, and then we’ll start our drive back to the city of Cusco. Take advantage of this last opportunity to observe the immense glacial mountains that have embraced you with pure affection during the route and that have allowed you to arrive safely to each destination along the route. Your body will likely be very tired, but the joy and satisfaction that you’ll feel in your soul will be incomparable. We’ll arrive in the city of Cusco at approximately 6:00 p.m. and drop you off at the door of your accommodation for you to finally kick back and relax.- Food And DrinksBreakfastLunch
