Choquequirao Trek 4Days/3Nights | Choquequirao Trekking Tour

Discovering the Ancient Majesty the Choquequirao Trekking Expedition 4 Days

Description

Embarking on a 4-day Choquequirao trekking tour is not just a physical journey but a voyage through time and culture. The stunning landscapes, ancient ruins, and encounters with local communities create a transformative experience that will linger in the memories of those who dare to venture into the heart of the Andes. As Choquequirao remains relatively undiscovered compared to its famous counterpart, Machu Picchu, now is the time to seize the opportunity to explore this hidden marvel before it gains widespread recognition.

Overview

Trekking Choquequirao  (3,085 m) is situated amongst the spurs of the Salkantay Mountain Range in the Province La Convencion in the Region Cusco above the Valley of the river Rio Apurimac. The entire complex encompasses 1,800 hectares of which 30-40% is uncovered.

The typical Inca terraces form the largest constructions on site. A temple, some administrative buildings and the living quarters of the aristocrats are situated around the central square. On the outskirts of the site lie the living quarters of the common people grouped together in a small village.

There are numerous water channels, aqueducts and water springs. Most of the buildings are well-preserved and well-restored.

Itinerary

Day 1:cusco – cachora – chiquisqa

Then we will continue our journey to the town of Chaquisqa (1930 m.a.s.l). The whole course to Chaquisqa is downward and the landscape is awesome and the weather is warm. Our first camp will be setup here. This is a three-hour walk.

This course is the hardest and we will take three hours after which we will climb up to the Maranpata (2850 m.a.s.l) that is an easier climb.

At the scheduled time, we will begin our return to Sunchupata, descending to Santa Rosa, where we stop for lunch. Thereafter we continue descending to Playa Rosalina that takes about an hour. Upon our arrival at Rosalina we will continue our journey to the village of Chaquisqa, two hours away from Rosalina, where we will spend the night.

Day 4: chiquisqa – capuliyoc – cachora

A hearty breakfast shall be served in Chaquisqa (06:00 hrs) after which we will return along the same route to Cachora which is the slope we descended on the first day and which is a smoother climb of two hours until we reach the pass of Capuliyoc.
