After an early hotel pickup in Cusco between 4:00 and 4:30 a.m., we head to the remote village of Pacchanta. There, a local breakfast prepares us for a memorable 12 km hike at high altitude. The route is moderately difficult, with most of the challenges coming from the elevation. We take it slow, allowing plenty of time to enjoy each lagoon’s unique color and setting. You’ll visit a series of magical lakes like Azulcocha and China Otorongo, each reflecting the surrounding peaks like glass. On the way, you’ll encounter a variety of Andean wildlife After the hike, we return to Pacchanta for a satisfying lunch. The group can then decide whether to relax in the nearby hot springs, a peaceful 45-minute soak in warm mineral waters. We'll arrive back in Cusco between 6:30 and 7:00 p.m., with drop-off at Plaza Regocijo, just two blocks from the Plaza de Armas.
