We, my wife and I, did a 4 day trekking with Ibrahim and the horseman Nolberto. Ibrahim was great: showed us the most beautiful places on the trekking, cooked wonderfully and specifically to our wishes, and Nolberto even more or less „ran“ the additional 4.5 hours to see the rainbow mountains. A unique experience we won’t forget! Thank You Ausangate Trek Agency

Amazing trek! We did a 4 days hike around the Ausangate mountain and it worth every second. Be sure to take a lot of warming equipment and waterproof coats against snow and rain.
After the walk, relax in the natural thermal baths.

The Classic Choquequirao trek with cabins and huts 5 Days Details

The Classic Choquequirao trek with cabins and huts 5 Days Locals refer to Choquequirao as the sister of Machu Picchu, and a 5-day hike is easier. This hike is very interesting and can only be reached on foot. It’s a bit arduous, but well worth it. Choquequirao ranked first on the Best in Travel list in the “Regions” category, one of the most prestigious rankings of destinations recommended by international travel experts. In this list, Lonely Planet, the world’s largest travel guide, invites you to imagine Choquequirao in Peru as a place that offers the chance to become an explorer: “In the Inca citadel, you can sit alone and appreciate the mountains, admire the path of the Apurímac River from above, or watch the condors fly.”
