Choquequirao Trek

Choquequirao, meaning “Cradle of Gold”, is an impressive archaeological complex located in the Vilcabamba mountain range in the Cusco region. This area is believed to have been the last refuge of the Incas during the resistance led by Manco Inca II.

Likely built by Túpac Yupanqui, Choquequirao is renowned for its terraces adorned with llamas and a shepherd in the Llamachayoc sector. These terraces are notable for the use of vertically placed stones. Additionally, in the Pacchayoq sector, you can observe an advanced water channel system irrigating a complex of agricultural terraces. The steep inclination of the slopes where these terraces are located is truly remarkable.

During the trek, you will enjoy spectacular geography as well as the native flora and fauna of the region, which includes inter-Andean valleys and tropical jungle. Temperatures can range from a minimum of 5ºC (41ºF) at night to a maximum of 23ºC (73ºF) during the day.
