Prepare your backpack and begin the 2-hour hike to Humantay Lake. The ascent is steep, but your small group and guide will allow you to enjoy the hike at a comfortable pace.
Once you reach the lake, take in the breathtaking views and opt for a small climb on either side of the lake for a panoramic view.
