After spending some time in this amazing place surrounded by old Sauco trees, we’ll continue walking to arrive to our first campsite (3,527m/11,570ft), in amazing ruins built in the top of the waterfall with magnificent views of the valley below.

We’ll start the day with a nice hot breakfast to get ready for the hike. After that we’ll start the ascent on the mountain pass that will bring us to the flat highlands, having lunch just before the pass. After the pass, we’ll walk through amazing lunar scenery, full of local fauna from the highlands of the Andes, surrounded by small rivers and lakes, to arrive to our campsite of the day.

After spending some time in this magical place, we’ll continue our descent to lunch. After lunch, we’ll continue our way down through the Cacchicata Quarries, where we’ll spend some time admiring the fine stone work of the Incas. We will continue walking following a path marked with the “Sleeping Stones”, stones that were abandoned by the Incas once the Spaniards arrived to Ollantaytambo and prevented the Incas from finishing the construction of the temple. This path will bring us to the Inca Bridge, at the entrance of Ollantaytambo, and the end of this wonderful journey.
