Tour Plan

1st stop Cusco - Mollepata

We pass to pick up everyone from their respective hotels between 4:30 to 5:00 am. Then we will go to the town of Mollepata by car for 2 hours where we will make a stop at the restaurant to have a delicious breakfast (which will take us about an hour).

2nd stop Soraypampa - Humantay Lake

Afterward, we get ready for the hike towards the Humantay Lake for around 2 hours uphill hike (3 km). Once in Humantay Lake, you will have enough time to take pictures of the breathtaking scenery, listen to the explanations of the guide and enjoy all the wonderful landscape of the area.

The time that you will spend at Humantay Lake is about 45 minutes to 1½ hours depending on the weather conditions. Sometimes it is cloudy, foggy or a little rainy and it is very cold, in that case you may stay about 30 minutes.

If the weather is sunny and clear you can stay around 1½ hours, enough time to know the lake Humantay.

Return Cusco

Finally, we will get ready for the return to the car stop and it will be the end of the hike. Later, we will take the car back to Mollepata for 1 hour where we will stop to have a buffet lunch and then back to Cusco by car (2 more hours).
