Why we love it?

This private 4-day Lares Trek from Cusco offers an immersive hiking experience through the Sacred Valley, starting in the village of Patakancha and passing over two high mountain passes, including the highest at 4,500 meters. Along the route, you will encounter traditional Andean villages, diverse landscapes of mountains, lakes, and valleys, and have the opportunity to relax in the Lares hot springs. The trek concludes with a guided tour of the iconic Machu Picchu citadel after traveling by train to Aguas Calientes and an early bus ride up to the site. This tour suits travelers seeking a less crowded alternative to the classic Inca Trail, with professional bilingual guides and included meals to support a comfortable and culturally rich adventure in Peru.
