HUMANTAY LAKE FULL DAY HIKE

DesCRIPTION

Come along with us on an exhilarating day trip to the stunning Humantay Lake! Experience breathtaking landscapes as you journey to the trailhead for our day hike. Renowned for its pristine turquoise waters and the majestic backdrop of the snow-capped Humantay and Salkantay Mountains, Humantay Lagoon stands out as one of the most awe-inspiring destinations in the Andes Mountains.

Itinerary

Our guide will collect you from your Cusco hotel between 4:00 am and 4:30 am. Passing through the local communities of Izcuchaca and Limatambo, we’ll travel with the group to Mollepata (approximately 3 hours) for a nutritious breakfast. From there, we’ll proceed to Soraypampa (3,900 meters/12,800 feet) and commence our hike to the renowned Humantay Lagoon! After a 1.5-hour trek, we’ll reach the lagoon (4,220 meters/13,850 feet) boasting stunning blue-green waters, with the snow-capped peaks of Humantay and Salkantay Mountains forming an impressive backdrop, rendering it one of the Andes Mountains’ most remarkable sights. Here, we’ll pause to admire the breathtaking vistas, while our local guide shares insights into the area’s history and significance. You’ll have ample time to independently explore this extraordinary locale. Subsequently, we’ll descend to Soraypampa and return to Mollepata for lunch. Finally, we’ll embark on a roughly 3.5-hour journey back to Cusco, where we’ll drop you off at Plaza San Francisco.
