Itinerary

1. Ausangate 7 Lagunas
Horseback riding to the 7 Lakes of Ausangate in a mixed group begins with a 4:30 am hotel pick-up in Cusco. We travel to Pacchanta (4,100 m / 13,451 ft), at the foot of the majestic Ausangate Mountain, where a warm buffet breakfast prepared by local families awaits us. After breakfast, the guide organizes the horses and provides a brief explanation of the route and safety guidelines. This tour operates as a group service, with both hikers and horseback riders. Since horseback riders may move faster than hikers, designated meeting points are established along the route where the group will regroup. This allows everyone to enjoy the experience at their own pace while ensuring that the entire group stays organized and safe throughout the journey. We explore the 7 Lakes of Ausangate, surrounded by dazzling turquoise waters, majestic glaciers, and towering snow-capped peaks. A breathtaking journey through one of the most spectacular landscapes in the Peruvian Andes.
Duration: 240 mins
2. Aguas Termales Pacchanta
After plenty of time for photos and to fully enjoy the breathtaking scenery, we ride or walk back to Pacchanta, where a delicious buffet lunch featuring traditional Andean dishes will be waiting for us. After lunch, you will have approximately 1.5 to 2 hours to relax in the Pacchanta hot springs, naturally heated by the thermal activity of Ausangate. These mineral-rich waters are perfect for soothing your muscles while admiring the impressive mountain views. Since the horseback experience is more relaxed and less physically demanding, travelers usually have more time to unwind, soak comfortably, and enjoy the peaceful Andean atmosphere. After enjoying the hot springs, we return to Cusco in our tourist bus, with an approximate 3-hour journey. The tour officially ends at Plaza Regocijo, located just one block from the main square of Cusco.
Duration: 300 mins
