Description
Durante muchos siglos la gente de las zonas rurales del Perú ha mantenido varios elementos ancestrales. Una de las áreas que han experimentado pocos cambios son las comunidades andinas que se encuentran en las sierras de Ausangate. El viaje que ofrecemos permitirá experiencias que nunca serán olvidadas ya que permitirá tener una visión de la profundidad del alma peruana y ver a la gente en su hábitat natural.
We left Cusco in a private bus to Urcos town, and drive along the Cusco – Puerto Maldonado route, then passed Ocongate town until we arrive to Tinqui (3 800 m.a.s.l./12 467ft), where we sleep in a local lodge.
This day we will begin our walk, passing by Quinsapucyu, Huarmisaya until we arrive to Upis which offer fantastic views of Ausangate.
We go toward the pass of Arapa, at approximately 4 958 m.a.s.l/16 266ft, and then we camp near the lagoon of Pukacocha.
We will visit a group of small lakes, from then we will direct us to the highest pass of our trekking, the pass of Palomani at meter above sea level, and at dusk we will arrive to Jampa.
We will go toward the valley of Jampa, surrounding it for the northwest until we arrive to the Ticllacocha lagoon. Then we will cross the last pass located at 4 650 m.a.s.l./15 250ft. Passing it we will arrive to the pampas of Pachaspata, where we will camp in the banks of the Qomercocha Lake.
We will descend to the valley until arrive to Pachanta town. In Pachanta, we will take a rest and take a bath in the thermal waters of the place.
Then of a brief walk, we will arrive to the highway, where a vehicle will be waiting for us in order to drive us to Cusco, arriving at dusk
Hiking pants and T-shirts are recommended during the day, eventually complemented by sweaters, fleeces and jackets in the evening. We recommend convertible hiking pants and / or shorts as some parts of the route run at low altitude and warm weather. It is also very convenient to have light raingear available in the daypack (rain poncho or jacket and/or rain pants) as the weather changes easily and rains can suddenly occur. At night, warm clothing is required along the route. The rest of necessary implements are included in the “What we recommend that you bring” list.
Cusco’s climate is divided into two differentiated seasons: the rainy season, from November to April (the heaviest rainfalls occurring usually between January – March); and the dry season, from May to October. The dry season is colder, so temperatures can drop to below 0 degrees at night.
Along the route to Choquequirao, temperatures range from 15-25ºC during the day if it’s sunny, to 10-20ºC during the day if not sunny. Temperatures drop in the evening and at night, especially in Choquequirao, at a higher elevation, reaching 5ºC although rarely below. Warm clothes are hence however necessary for this hike.
