Kinsa Cocha
Begin your journey with hotel pickup in Cusco and a scenic drive through the Sacred Valley to the high-altitude lakes of Kinsa Cocha. Stop first at Azul Cocha, a peaceful blue lagoon, then enjoy a gentle one-hour hike to Pumacocha, often accompanied by friendly alpacas. From there, ascend to a mountain pass for sweeping Andean views before descending to the stunning Kinsa Cocha lake. Enjoy a relaxing boxed lunch by the water, surrounded by silence and natural beauty. On the return, you can optionally visit the Pisac archaeological site—an impressive Incan complex perched above the valley. This full-day tour blends breathtaking landscapes, gentle hiking, and cultural discovery. Return to Cusco around 6 PM with unforgettable memories of the Peruvian Andes. Includes transportation, guide, and lunch. Approx. 3–4 hours hiking (9 km) at high altitude. Suitable for active travelers.
