DIA UNO : Cusco – Huayllabamba (L, D)
5.30 a.m. – 6.00 a.m. Our private transportation and staff will pick you up from
your hotel. We drive to Piscacuchu (2700m/8856ft), a community located on the
82nd kilometer of the Cusco –Machu Picchu railroad, which is the starting point of
the Inca Trail. We begin our hike by crossing the bridge over the Urubamba River
and walking along its left shore as it flows northwest along the Sacred Valley.
Following the trail along a flat terrain, we arrive in Miskay (2800m/9184ft), to then
ascend and finally see, from the tallest part of an overlook, the impressive Inca city
of Llactapata (2650m/8692ft). We continue trekking along the valley created by
the Kusichaca River, gradually climbing for about five hours until we reach the
community of Huayllabamba (3000m/9840ft), where we set our first camp. All
along the way we enjoy spectacular views of the Vilcanota ridge on the opposite
side of the Urubamba River, where the impressive Veronica peak reigns at 5832
meters above sea level. Not to mention the diversity of wild flora and fauna that
can be found all along the valley.

We wake up at around 6.00 a.m. and after breakfast; we begin the most difficult
part of the trek, which consists of an abrupt and steep ascent that stretches for 9
km. Along this climb, the landscape changes from sierra to puna (a dry and high
area with little vegetation). On the way to the first mountain pass, the Abra
Warmihuañusca (Dead Woman´s Pass – 4200m/13776ft), we may see
domesticated llamas and alpacas grazing on ichu, one of the few plants that grow
at high altitude. We also cross an area of the so called cloud forest, which is the
habitat for many different kinds of birds like hummingbirds and sparrows, and the
Andean bear, which is also called the Spectacled Bear (Tremarctus Ornatus). We
advise that on this day specially, your daypack is well stocked with candies,
chocolates and coca leaves that will keep your sugar level high, and help with
altitude sickness. Immediately after the pass, we descend into the Pacaymayo
