I don't think my GPS location on this is correct, but it is off of the road between the sacred valley and Cuzco. Anyway, it's an ancient Incan terraced seed breeding farm for the royals. Evidently, they bred hundreds of varieties of potatoes alone. Terrific hike.
Colca Canyon in Peru should be on every hiker's bucket list. We spent two nights there during our visit a few years back and loved every moment. The best memory I have is of us watching the sun dip behind the mountains from a natural hot spring in Llahuar, a perfect ending to a long day of #hiking! #goldenhour #waterlust
