Stop at four stunning highland lakes—Acopia, Pomacanchi, Pampamarca, and Asnacocha. These serene bodies of water are rich in natural beauty and wildlife. Keep an eye out for native bird species and local fishermen, and enjoy time to walk around, relax, and capture incredible photos.

At the Q’eswachaka Bridge, experience a true Inca engineering marvel. Made entirely from plant fiber (ichu grass), this 28-meter-long suspension bridge is rebuilt every year using ancestral techniques. Feel the thrill as you walk across this living piece of history.
In Quehue, enjoy a horseback riding experience, offering a unique way to explore the Andean landscape and connect with the local environment.
