This trek to the Humantay lake will take you to discover a perfect combination of the cultural and natural beauty of the Salkantay Park. Discover Humantay in its maximum expression of imposing and beautiful turquoise lake, ideal for adventure and nature lovers. Challenge your limitations discovering beautiful landscapes of high Andean mountains, snow-capped mountains, flora and fauna. The hike will transport you back to Inca times and consciously awaken the spirits of the mountains of Salkantay (6,264m / 20,551ft), Tucarhuay or Humantay whose peak is higher than 5,000m / 16,404 ft.
We will leave Cusco at 5:30am and head towards Mollepata (3,000m / 9,843ft) where we stop for a while thereafter we continue to Soraypampa (3,900m / 12,795f), the beginning of the hike. From here, we start hiking within a magnificent valley, surrounded by the most important snow-capped mountains such as the Humantay (5,217m / 17,116ft) and the Salkantay (6,264m / 20,551ft). Also this morning we will discover the beautiful turquoise lake of Laguna de Humantay (4,220m / 13,845ft) and an outstanding frontal view of Salkantay snow-covered.
Waking up to an energetic coca leaves infusion and a healthy protein breakfast will get you ready to walk for two hours to the top of the imposing Rainbow mountain (5200m / 17060ft). On our way up, you’ll be able to admire the impressive Red Valley, Ausangate glacier and the Surine Mountain. Once you reach the top, you’ll have time to explore the surroundings and take photos. After that, it’ll be time to go down towards the Chillihuani/Hanchipata community (4800m/15748ft). At this point, our driver will be waiting to drive us to Cusipata town. You’ll get to enjoy a delicious lunch made with organic products from the community. After lunch, you’ll head back to Cusco and we’ll drop you off at your accommodation at about 4 pm.

Excelente tour - El guiado y la información brindada por exploraandina fue muy oportuna y completa. Un trekking que volvería a realizar con la agencia
Experiencia Única - Una experiencia autentica en Valle de Lares.
Mi experiencia en Valle de Lares fue verdaderamente única y enriquecedora. Explorar las alturas andinas y sumergirme en las tradiciones textiles de la... read more comunidad de Huacawasi fue un viaje transformador. Los tejidos parecen contar historias ancestrales, y caminar por los impresionantes paisajes mientras visitaba lugares históricos como Raqaypata y Soqma fue simplemente asombroso. La visita a la cascada de Perolniyoc fue un momento mágico. Y por supuesto, la cereza del pastel fue la visita a Machu Picchu. Recomiendo a la agencia de viajes Explorandino por el trabajo que vienen desarrollando con la propuesta de viajes no convencionales, integran emprendimientos locales y respetuosos con la cultura local y el entorno natural.
