First Day: Cusco – Huaran – Canchacancha
We know how important this vacation is for you, so we do not want you to have any doubts or questions before you take the trip to this unique wonder of the world. Therefore, your guide will meet with you at your hotel 1 or 2 days before departure, to review all previous information, personalized details and address any concerns or questions you may have.
We will leave the city of Cusco after picking you up from your hotel in our private transport service to go to the sacred valley and reach the beginning of Lares trek Huaran district (3,000 meters / 9,840 feet) located 1 1/2 hours from Cusco. This is where we will meet our staff (porters and cooks), who come from the community of Cancha Cancha. We will then begin our walk enjoying the views that nature offers us with a landscape rich in flora and fauna through native shrubs in the area, covering endemic bird varieties, and the capricious rock formations of the Urubamba range with a view of the sacred valley. We will arrive at the community of Cancha Cancha (3,956 meters / 12,976 feet) where we will have the opportunity to observe the daily life of the locals in this community.
