This experience will let us get in touch with our walking spirit, and discover the humility and kindness of the Andean people. We will learn about their cultural heritage, their history and way of life —celebrating and sharing their cuisine, typical dances, and music. Wiracocha is the god of the Incas, the maker of all things. On this trek, we will see mountains, lakes, and lagoons which were created by him in the eyes of the Inca Empire. This tour will transform and enrich our body, mind, and soul.
Following The Steps Of Wiracocha (Inca God)
DAY 1: SURROUNDINGS OF SACSAYHUAMÁN — QORICOCHA LODGE (QENCCO COMMUNITY)
We will depart from Cusco City to the Sacsayhuamán archeological complex, from where we will embark on a 4-5 hours long hike to Qoricocha Lodge. During our journey, we will make strategic stops to snap pictures of the landscape and our surroundings. We will see Inca constructions, as well as the daily activities of the local dwellers, such as: raising and grazing of llamas and alpacas and typical agricultural activities of the Peruvian Andes.
Upon our arrival at Qoricocha Lodge we will be greeted with flowers and music by the local community, with a magnificent lagoon as backdrop to the experience. Following the reception, we will enjoy a typical lunch made by members of the community using local produce. After lunch, we will watch a demonstration of the Andean textile process, and a member of the community will explain to us the different uses of local medicinal plants. Later, you will have some free time to rest before dinner.
After dinner, we will have a campfire, where we will do tributes to the earth, and gather around the fire to tell stories, myths, and Andean legends.
