Huchuy Qosqo Trail 2D / 1N: Why Go

Huchuy Qosqo Trail 2D / 1N

This is a wonderful trip if you like hiking and being surrounded by nature!

The main attraction on this trek are the ruins of Huchuy Q'osqo (small Cusco), situated near to the Sacred Valley above Calca. It is known as small Cusco because it is said to mimic the exact shape of Cusco but on a much smaller scale. From the ruins you have a spectacular view on the mountain range Cordillera de Vilcanota. It is a fascinating site where the Inca chief Viracocha lived. The mummy that was found here is said to be his. The ruins are part rock and part adobe; some of the houses are from the "post-Inca" time, but in Inca-style, and there is a Spanish-style reservoir.

      It was a marvellous experience!

      I recently booked an excursion with Dos Manos to Puno and the Floating Islands on Lake Titicaca. It was a marvelous trip and I really enjoyed it!

      When we came to your agency, it was for info on Salkantay trail. My wife and me are bilingual (French & English). We talked to Joseph a guy who speaks Spanish and French.
