From the cobblestone streets of Cusco to the picturesque towns of Izcuchaca and Limatambo, every mile traversed is a step closer to the untamed beauty of Mollepata

As the sun ascends, casting its golden glow upon the landscape, we arrive at Mollepata, greeted by the tranquil waters of Humantay Lake shimmering in the distance.

As day surrenders to dusk, we gather around the hearth, sharing tales of triumph and adventure, nourished by the warmth of camaraderie and the tantalizing aromas of our chef's creations

The trail winds its way through a tapestry of coffee plantations and emerald forests, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of life that thrives in this enchanted realm. At Playa Sahuayaco, we pause to savor a banquet fit for kings, as we bask in the tranquility of our surroundings, our senses alight with the wonders of the natural world.As the sun sets on day four, we bid farewell to the jungle, as we make our way towards Aguas Calientes, our final destination. Along the way, we catch fleeting glimpses of Machu Picchu, its ancient stones shrouded in mystery and legend.
