Cusco Trail Run & Huatia: Running Through Inca Roots

Highlights

• Run ancient Incan trails above Cusco through farmland and eucalyptus groves
• Experience a traditional Andean huatia cooking ritual
• Share stories and learning about the daily life of Peruvian subsistence farmers

Description

Your journey begins just above the Incan ceremonial site of Tambomachay, following gentle downhill trails through chacras (traditional Andean farmlands), rolling hills, and fragrant eucalyptus groves. After about 5 km, you’ll reach the small farming community of Pucará, where you’ll take part in the ancestral ritual of preparing a huatia — an earthen oven dating back to pre-Inca times, still used by Andean families today. Together, you’ll build and fire the huatia, learn about traditional farming practices, and enjoy freshly cooked potatoes straight from the earth. Recharged, you’ll continue running along Incan trail down to San Blas, the historic artisan quarter of Cusco.
