Choquekiraw

Trek to the Choquekiraw Sanctuary (4 days/ 3 nights)

This is a spectacular though relatively difficult hike that crosses the Canyon of the Apurimac River and ends up at the mysterious ruins of Choquekiraw. Perched high on a ledge above the Apurimac, Choquekiraw appears to have been an Inca city with scattered and fascinating sectors. The different parts seem to have diverse functions and communicated with the main square by a series of footpaths. The main square has a ceremonial character and also two different living levels. You can see temples of the sun and of the earth, residences, sleeping rooms for Mitimaes (indentured workers to the Incas) and farmers´ residences. The remains of the monument show that the city was suddenly abandoned. Choquekiraw is made all the more special by its location – overlooking one of the deepest canyons in the world – the Apurimac.
