2 DAYS & 1 NIGHT
In the Trekking Huchuy Qosqo Inca Trail you can see the magnificent and strategic Archaeological Complex named Huchuy Qosqo or “Small Cusco” was known in Inca times as Caquia Xaquixahuana. According to the croniclers (who wrote about pre-Colombian Inca culture), Huchuy Qosqo was inhabited by the Inca Wiracocha until his death.
Huchuy Qosqo boasts a spectacular view of the Sacred Valley of the Incas and the Urubamba mountain range. This beautiful and short tourist circuit is located close to the city of Cusco and offers the possibility of seeing both attractive Andean landscapes as well as fauna and flora typical of the area.
