A day-filled adventure tour with breathtaking landscapes, "Apus" mountains, and turquoise, blue, green, and even reddish lagoons. Besides these attractions, you'll get to know the Andean flora and fauna, such as Alpacas, Vizcachas, and Condors.
The highlights of this tour are the seven lagoons located on the slopes of the Vilcanota Mountain Range, with the following names: Otorongo Macho, Otorongo Hembra, Puca Cocha, Alqa Cocha, Ccomer Cocha, Azul Cocha, and Pata Cocha.
Finally, in the community of Pacchanta, there's an incredible natural hot spring with medicinal properties; if you wish, you can also relax in these natural thermal waters.
4:30 am We will pick you up at your hotel in Cusco, then our transportation will take us to the community of Pacchanta, traveling approximately 3 hours – Pacchanta is a community located at 4,320 meters above sea level.
After a delicious breakfast in the Pacchanta community, we will begin the trek from Pacchanta to the 7 Lagoons. We'll walk for about 5 hours (round trip) and visit lagoons of different colors, characterized by their blue, turquoise, and green colors: Otorongo Macho, Otorongo Hembra, Puca Cocha, Alqa Cocha, Ccomer Cocha, Azul Cocha, and Pata Cocha.
During the visit to the 7 lagoons mentioned, we will also see the following mountains: Ausangate, Jampa, Pucapunta, Tinke, and the Qayangate Mountain Range. We will also observe some Andean flora and fauna. Keep in mind that the trek includes both steep and flat sections.
After visiting the 7 lagoons, we will return to the small community known as Pacchanta, and around 2:00 pm we will have lunch.
Finally, we will have the opportunity to enjoy the hot springs for about 40 minutes or explore the Pacchanta community on your own. The tourist transportation will take us back from Pacchanta to Cusco city, arriving back in Cusco around 6:30 pm.
The trek to the 7 Lagoons of Apu Ausangate begins in the Pacchanta Community, which is a 3.5-hour journey from Cusco at an altitude of 4,320 meters (14,173 feet). This picturesque village is located right at the foot of the majestic Ausangate Mountain!
The best season to visit the 7 Lagoons of Ausangate is between April and November, during the dry months. Being located in the Vilcabamba mountain range, the weather is usually mild during most of the year, although conditions can vary due to the altitude.
The trek to the 7 Lagoons of Ausangate has steep sections and flat areas. It takes about 5 hours (round trip) at a steady pace with some breaks. The trail can be slippery in parts, especially during the rainy season, so trekking boots are recommended for greater safety and stability.

Realizar el camino Inka de dos días con esta empresa ha sido una experiencia difícilmente olvidable y totalmente recomendable. La gestión de traslados, reserva de alojamiento, desayunos y comidas ha sido inmejorable. Tuvimos la suerte de contar con un guía llamado Javier que mostró amplísimos conocimientos sobre todos los lugares que visitamos, así como sobre animales, pájaros, mariposas, flores y plantas que observamos, lo cual enriqueció enormemente la experiencia. Además organizó anticipadamente todas las gestiones relacionadas con la ruta para despreocuparnos de todo. Tuvimos mucha suerte de que Javier fuera nuestro guía, así que recomiendo sin duda vivir la experiencia con esta empresa y si tenéis suerte Javier quizás os pueda acompañar.

We did the 2-day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with Javier, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. From start to finish, he was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly supportive, especially on the uphill climbs! He shared so much insight about Inca history, the significance of the sites along the way, and even little details that made the experience more meaningful. You can tell he truly cares about the land, the culture, and the people he’s guiding. On a practical level, he was extremely organized and thoughtful. He checked in with us throughout the hike, adjusting the pace as needed, offering encouragement during the tougher climbs, and making sure we felt supported and safe. He also knew the best spots for breaks and photos and trust me, the man has a great eye for capturing the perfect picture! If you’re thinking about doing the Inca Trail whether it’s a short trek or the full journey do yourself a favor and request Javier. He doesn’t just guide you to Machu Picchu, he guides you through an experience that stays with you long after the hike is over.

The trip on the Salkantay Pass was absolutely amazing. Beautiful views and an unbelievable overall atmosphere. Our guide, Johann went above and beyond making sure we had a safe, informative, and fun trip. I don’t know if we could’ve done this with anybody else. The porters, chef, and overall crew were all amazing and did so much to make the experience amazing, and share the landscape and history with us. Amazing trip I can’t recommend more, especially with Johann
