There, we will arrive at the Casa Salkantay Museum Restaurant, a beautiful spot where, in addition to enjoying a buffet breakfast, you can take in the stunning natural scenery of the Apurimac Valley.
We will then continue our journey for another hour along a trail to Soraypampa, a tourist camp located 3,800 meters above sea level. From there, we will begin our hike to Humantay Lagoon, which will take approximately 1.5 hours and will take us up to 4,300 meters above sea level.
