We will pick you up from the hotel at 5.00 am in our tourist transportation, and then
ride for about 2 hours until reaching our first stop in the village of Mollepata to have
our first breakfast. Afterward, we will board our transportation again, and around 9:00 am.
We will begin the trek towards Soraypampa. The first 25 minutes will be uphill until the old Water Canal. Then, we will walk this part of the route on a good path with panoramic views of two beautiful Snowy Mountains, the Humantay and Salkantay. This first morning, we will hike for around 3 hours until Soraypampa, the area to have our first lunch and our hostel location.

In the afternoon, after a well-deserved rest, we leave the hostel for a short walk up to
visit the Humantay Lagoon, located at 4,200 meters above sea level. The hike is
approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes until we reach the famous Lagoon, where you
will enjoy the beauty and charm of the place and the best opportunity to take fantastic
photos. Afterwards, we walk back to our Soraypampa lodge to witness a beautiful
sunset, then we will enjoy our delicious dinner. There is the possibility of taking
advantage of the clear night to appreciate the constellations in the sky.

This day our cook will wake us up for a coca leaf tea at 06:00 am, and after our delicious
breakfast, we begin the walk to reach the highest point of the route, which is 7 km
away. We will do this in approximately 4 hours.

This second day will be the most arduous day of the entire Trek. We begin our walk uphill
from Soraypampa, with a gradual slope for 1 hour and 30 minutes along the Salkantay Valley,
until reaching the area known as Salkantaypampa, at 4,200 meters above sea level, where
we will take a short break. After this break, we will climb through a rocky valley and continue
along a challenging trail of pure ascent, known as the “7 Snakes” for 2 hours and 30 minutes
until the highest point of our route, the impressive Salkantay Pass, located above 4,630
m.a.s.l. From there, we can appreciate spectacular views of the mountains and impressive
snow-capped peaks such as the magnificent Salkantay Mountain (6,271 meters above sea
level / 20,574 feet) and Humantay (5,400 m.a.s.l. / 17,716 ft.), as well as views of other snowy peaks.
We will have enough time to stay and rest in the open, take unforgettable photos, and enjoy
the landscape. The Salkantay Mountain is the second highest in the region.

We will continue with our excursion, and on the way back, we will go down for 2
hours and 30 minutes until we return to Soraypampa; on the way, we will observe the great
stone forest and continue descending until reaching our Eco-Lodge, to have a delicious
lunch prepared by our chef. After a good rest and a restorative lunch, we board our
transportation back to Cusco City. The estimated time of arrival is 6:00 pm.
