Day 2:- Huchuy Q’osqo - Valle Sagrado de los Incas  - Cusco

Day 1:- Cusco Tambomachay – Huchuy Q’osqo Day 1:- Cusco Tambomachay – Huchuy Q’osqo

We leave Cusco at 8am, and catch a local bus to the interesting ruins of Tambomachay. From here we climb upwards until we have spectacular views over Cusco City.
We then cross the mountains, pass pretty alpine lakes, and pastures where llamas graze. Campesinos farmers also grow potatoes here. We then follow an Inca trail downward to a village of stone huts, with thatched straw on their roofs.
From here we pass through a narrow but spectacular canyon and arrive with wonderful views over the Sacred Valley. After about 8 hours of walking, we camp in the ruins of Huchuy Q’osqo, where we will relax, talk of the Incas and spend the night.

 
Day 2:- Huchuy Q’osqo - Valle Sagrado de los Incas - Cusco Day 2:- Huchuy Q’osqo - Valle Sagrado de los Incas - Cusco

In the morning we explore the ruins of Huchuy Cusco and ponder its role as "Small Cusco". From here it is three and a half hours stunning descent into the Sacred Valley. We will have a late lunch in the typical and un tourist village of Lamay before returning to Cusco by local bus. If we have time, and the group wishes, we could stop at the Pisaq market for some souvenir shopping.
Return to Cusco approximately 5pm.
Alternatively, we can escort you to Ollantaytambo to take the Train Cerrojo (Backpacker Train - the cheapest train option) to Aguas Calientes and the mysterious ruins of Machu Picchu.
